One of the most unlucky cricketers of his generation, Suryakumar Yadav has got to curse his luck. He has been one of the most consistent players in both IPL and domestic circuit over the last 4-5 years. He performed the role of a finisher quite brilliantly for Kolkata Knight Riders and mesmerised everyone with his opening last season.

He has the ability to play all the shots. He has been consistent across all formats and is also an effective part-time bowler. He could have been a possible solution for the No.4 conundrum, and it is such a pity that he is yet to make his national debut.

He has only made sporadic appearances for the India-A team and he has been deprived of opportunities. Time is running out for the 28-year-old and maybe another bumper season in the IPL, could break open the door to the Indian cricket team.
