Spinners
We are going in with a 7-4 combination with Krunal Pandya playing the role of an all-rounder. The slow left-arm spinner will back the lone frontline spinner in this team, Shahbaz Nadeem. Nadeem has been on a giant-killing spree in the domestic circuit in the last two seasons in which he picked up a total of 107 Ranji wickets.
Even with the white ball, Nadeem looked threatening and did the job for Jharkhand. In the 2017 Vijay Hazare trophy, he picked up 15 wickets in 8 matches at an average of just 18. He also conceded just over 4 runs an over and was MS Dhoni’s go-to man throughout the tournament.
Nadeem is by far the best spinner in the Indian domestic circuit and has proved that he can be a big asset to the team in the Vijay Hazare trophy. If he continues to bowl the way he is bowling, a call-up to the national side might not be too far of.
