5 Indian players from the Zimbabwe tour who could be permanent members of the ODI team

5. Dhawal Kulkarni

Kulkarni did well with the new ball in the series against Zimbabwe

Fast bowler Dhawal Kulkarni has been in and out of the Indian team ever since he made his ODI debut against England in 2014. The 27-year old found his way back into the Indian team courtesy of a stellar performance for Gujarat Lions in this year's IPL and he has made his opportunity count to some extent.

In 3 matches, Kulkarni took 5 wickets and formed a fine opening bowling pair with Barinder Sran. He swung the ball quite a lot in slightly helpful conditions and got the Indians some early breakthroughs.

Considering the struggles of India's pace department in recent times, the Mumbai pacer could surely find a spot in the ODI team.
