Most of the new express bowlers ie Tyagi, Mayank have fitness concerns and are mostly playing some matches in IPL.

 

On the fitness front and playing lots of matches in domestic cricket , Ashok is next in line to make debut for team India.

 

He should not be wasted ans should play next international series

I feel he will do wonders in Test.

He has good control on his lines and lengths, and can bowl fast day in and day out.

Tyagi, Mayank,.....though fast have fragile bodies, hence may not be able to sustain the rigors of 5 day game. Ashok can do that, bowling alongside Bumrah & Siraj he can be the perfect foil to bring in pace and bounce.

 

Prasidh too while has improved in that aspect, Ashok has a strong base to start with and is quite young 23-24 in comparison to Prasidh (30).

Harshit is another one who has Test match skills, but need to work on his stamina.

I really wanted to see Aquib Nabi - the J&K pacer. Also Mangesh Yadav. Don't know why these two are being hidden.

mangesh only played mpt20 league last season based on that played few smat games. his story is same as Brijesh frm rr. do not think he is 140 kmph bowler as some are claiming he could be more like sub 135kmph bowler and effort ball hitting high 130s kmph

 nabi has been around but lacks pace bowls ~130kmph , he was consistent but this was his kind of break-out season.

Mangesh apparently is a good hitter down the order. Wanted to see what he can do. Even if he bowls in 130s but can give us 20-30 runs he would be good to have in SENA countries to play the Axar role. We need pace all-rounders or at least someone who can score a few runs.

 

Nabi is more of a bowler and I want to see him in Tests. His Ranji performances need to be awarded and he deserves a Test selection. If he does well and picks wkts consistently can be the left field pick for ODI WC to partner with Bumrah.

Ashok bowls pretty decent lines for someone always hovering around 147 k to 150 k. Does not spray the ball.

 

Plus, so far, he has shown the fitness to play all 3 formats regularly this season including red ball cricket. This is a big plus. 

 

Plus he is bowling zippy stump directed balls, quick indipping yorkers, bouncing channel balls, vicious bumpers and decent slower balls. Just needs to reduce the % of shortish balls. 

 

Probably our best young all-format fast bowling prospect based on the above.
