5 Candidates to address India's No. 4 conundrum

#2 Kedar Jadhav

Jadhav made a late start but is an able candidate

This man's all-round abilities give him a slight leverage as compared to his peers in the 50-over format. His unique bowling action coupled with his street-smart batting technique can be vital in providing the team some much-needed balance in such a long tournament.

He can provide a solid base if he's used at no. 4 thus allowing Pandya and co to accelerate at the end of the innings. He has provided some really critical breakthroughs in the middle overs with the ball and if he remains consistent enough, he'll find his name in the first team's sheet on a regular basis in the long run as well.

Due to some healthy competition in the Indian middle order, many have raised eyebrows questioning his place in the team. However, he enjoys the confidence and the backing of the team management which is more important than anything else in the modern game.
