MELBOURNE (Reuters) - India captain Virat Kohli says the world's top batsmen will have reason to fear Jasprit Bumrah after the talented young paceman put Australia to the sword in the third test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Bumrah, named man of the match after India's 137-run win, dismissed Pat Cummins (63) to pick up one of the last two wickets required on Sunday and finished with career-best figures of 9-86, the biggest test haul by an Indian quick in Australia.
