Where are the batsman who can roll their arms?

I remember in the last decade somebody like Viru bowling around 10 overs a day or even a Sachin trying to break a stand.

 

They were very handy for team balance and meant the load could be taken off the frontline bowlers.

 

On day 5 especially they came in very handy where they eeked out 1/2 wickets when the ball was spinning.

 

India have such as option in jadhav in the LOI. But where is that option in tests? Countries such as England can call the services of Joe Root. 

 

I look at India and overseas especially, we have batsman who cannot bowl and bowlers who cannot bat. Limited options with the ball and long tail with the bat. This means we are at times forced to play Pandya like player who is neither here nor there

Ours is a double whammy, top order can't bowl and lower order can't bat.Thats just criminal in this day and age.

If there is Vihari in the squad who can bowl ,team management will select Rohit.

Vijay Shankar would have been Ideal in the squad in place of Rohit
