#1 Bhuvneshwar Kumar - The epic

It will be an absolute lie to say that we did not expect the 23-year old seamer to come out as the best bowler of India after the match. But, how many would have had a gut feel that the Uttar Pradesh lad will be joining Wasim Akram as only the second cricketer to score two half-centuries, take a five-for and to have bowled the first over the innings in a Test match. 

He also became only the fourth Indian to claim a five-for in an innings and have two 50+ innings in a Test and the first while batting at No.8 or lower. 

Also, when Kumar ended the fifth day unbeaten, he had batted the third most number of balls at No.9 in Test history.
