India vs England Test series, spread across one and a half months, witnessed dramatic shifts in momentum across all five matches.

While there were high-scoring innings, bowlers too had their moments, often dominating sessions with quick breakthroughs. Fast bowlers, in particular, played a major role throughout the series—not only with their wicket-taking ability but also by shouldering the bulk of the workload.

Take Jasprit Bumrah for instance—he featured in only three matches but still managed to deliver 119.4 overs, a testament to his central role when available.
