India preferred Bhuvneshwar Kumar's swing to Mohammed Shami's pace against South Africa, but they might sacrifice one of their two frontline spinners to accommodate a paceman at the Oval, Ponting suggested. "(Jasprit) Bumrah we know is a very good new ball bowler and I'm sure he'll mix it up and bowl some short stuff and some full stuff," Ponting told cricket.com.au referring to the currently top-ranked ODI bowler. "Bhuvneshwar will probably not worry you too much with his pace or his bouncers. Hardik (Pandya) can maybe rush you a little bit, so maybe they have a decision to make on the overall make up of their side. He's not a natural hooker and puller of the ball anyway," said Ponting.
