BCCI should have used such services and have asked state teams to invest in such talents, I am sure BCCI can pull-out this kind of $. Find out x-factors budding talents have them in NCA under a program and work with IPL franchises and State teams(U-25 or second 11) to get them game time. RCB also had Hemant and Ravi who both are 145+ but they picked Avinash. So it's not a random pick. They had proper camp 2 months back where all these players were too.

Looking at Umran standing repeatedly besides Kohli in the last series, I think Umran must be atleast 5'10" or maybe a bit more even. If Avinash is taller then he could be around 6'0".

He was a net bowler for them for one year and then in second year of being a net bowler got drafted in the squad when Natrajan was injured.

RCB said that the Software tests pace, bounce, movement and mystery factor. And it is used as it is not possible to check every bowler personally. Love this modern and scientific approach. This could be a great move if BCCI adopts such a strategy but the parameter for such search should be very clear like what RCB has done -(. Look for 145 & + and not 135-140.) Other parameters could be with the minimum threshold of Pace , parameters of height or good skills at yorker delivery , a vicious bouncer , unusual zip ,maintaining pace for longer time etc.. Guys ticking more than 1 parameter could be groomed . Similarly for spinners , Height, Pace of delivery degree of Rev, Skills to spin both ways without easily visible change in bowling action, degree of spin , change of pace . Somehow i think difficult to find hidden gems in bowling than batting hence would be a great move to unearth bowlers who can win games. The result of such talent scout could be more visible in short format than longer format. express bowling 1
