In the recent months, the fast bowler was criticized for not inducing enough wickets, like in India’s tour of Australia and the WTC Final. But his performance in the 1st test match against England has been terrific, with 4 wickets in the 1st innings and took a five-wicket-haul in the 2nd innings. In the later part of the England innings on Day 4, he was also on a hat-trick when he bowled a peach of a delivery to dismiss Stuart Broad.
