ON Thursday, both T Natarajan and Sandeep Sharma, the two best Indian pacers not named Jasprit Bumrah in this year's edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), showcased their wares to perfection.

Overseas bowlers not pulling their weight... you get the drift, it has not been a good campaign. But that principle doesn't apply to Bumrah, whose artistry shined once again.
