The quick pacer from Delhi impressed the Indian captain when he was part of his IPL team – Royal Challengers Bangalore. Navdeep Saini had a decent IPL which led to his selection in the T20I series against the West Indies.

He was brilliant upon his debut as he picked up three wickets while giving away just 17 runs in his four overs. He bowled a maiden final over which is very rare in the T20 format. In the recently concluded ODI series against West Indies, he was called up as a replacement for the injured Deepak Chahar. He received his cap for the third ODI and he made his debut in that game.

He had a decent start to his ODI career as he picked up two wickets in middle overs which is a crucial period but he leaked a few runs in the death overs. He bowled with pace which was heartening to watch. In the only game that he played, he showed that he has the potential to become a great bowler.
