[Malcolm Merlyn]

Can anyone tell me why is Unadkat in discussion for any place in any format?

Dravid loves Unadkat, Avesh Khan and Mookesh Kumar. 

 

If they want a left arm seamer, why can't they pick Arshdeep Singh?

[zen]

The slot in discussion appears to be for the 3rd seamer who can take the pace off and bat a bit too at #7-8. Though Thakur should be the favorite over Unadkat. 

[Majestic]

They think he is the best performing player among those who haven't got enough chances yet.

[putrevus]

Thakur has a role but it is in tests and it is overseas in SENA. I have no idea why Jaidev is still in conversation in any format for Indian team.

[Nikhil_cric]

There's just not as many physically gifted athletes in this country and then we end up not developing whatever little talent we produce. Time to red pill on Indian cricket much like most else in this country.  

 

Mavi ruined, Nagarkoti, Tyagi lost in the wilderness. Not sure they even want Sen or Gurnoor etc. Mohsin also vanished .

Thakur may have declined but still our best bet if we want 3rd seamer.

fourth and fifth are hardik and Shardul.

 

no other pacers comes close to boom, Siraj and Shammi  and Shardul and Hardik among pace all rounders.

only Spinning AR could be Jaddu ( Axar is a first copy , he wont be picked unless the original is unavailable. WAshington Sundar has a chance.

kuldeep and chahal may be the Spinners.

If fit, Prasidh adds a different dimension as a tall, bounce bowler.

There is many physically developed athletes. Many. Average person is still poor. We just don't want to develop any physically gifted player cause of nepotism, quota selection and political support. 

 

 

[The Realist]

SOS to RP Singh?

 

Even know probably more talent than Tubby Thakur and Malnourished Unadkat combined.

Per capita? Not a chance. But yes, there is a significant number of talents who can bowl 140. But as can be seen, they are neither developed properly nor selected.

Per capita not because we still are behind as we are a developing nation. Average family income is low and the average person has zero access to proper nutrition and training. 

 

Once our nation improves standard of living overall we will beat anyone.
