Since the retirement of Zaheer Khan, India has struggled to find a proper left arm seamer. This search led to the selection of Barinder Sran. Sran had a good season with his stateside Punjab and was selected for the tour of Australia.

Even though Sran did bowl well in patches, he lacked consistency. Sran picked up 7 wickets in 6 ODIs at an average of 38.42. He was bought by Mumbai Indians at the auction for IPL 2019.

#5 Jayant Yadav

Jayant Yadav broke into the Indian Test team in 2016 for the important home series against England. Yadav played in 4 Tests for India and performed well both with the bat and ball. He also has a Test century to his name.

But because of the rise of the other Yadav, Kuldeep Yadav, Jayant Yadav was sidelined. Before playing Test cricket for India, Yadav played a solitary ODI against New Zealand, the game after which Dhoni resigned from the captaincy.
