North Sound (Antigua), Aug 26: With the World Test Championship underway, India skipper Virat Kohli reckons managing the workload of his fast bowlers will be key for the team. After record 318-run win over West Indies in the first Test of the two-match series, Kohli spoke on the importance of his bowlers in Test matches.

"That's probably the most important thing for us right now, managing players' workload. That's why he (Jasprit Bumrah) didn't play any white-ball cricket after the World Cup because we wanted him to be fresh for the Tests," Kohli said at the post-match presentation.
