A genuine fast bowler from the capital city of India, Navdeep Saini has been receiving a lot of praise for his consistent performances in the recent times. He has the ability to bowl over 140 kmph consistently and seam the ball around.

He was selected in the Indian squad for the one-off Test against Afghanistan earlier this year but could not make his international debut. He was one of the stand-out performers in the last Ranji season (2017-18). He picked up 34 wickets from 8 games in the tournament.

He has played 36 first-class matches in his career so far and picked up 106 wickets at an average of 27.12


#1 Mayank Agarwal (Karnataka)

The run machine in domestic cricket Mayank Agarwal was recently rewarded for his consistent performances in domestic circuit as he was selected in the Indian Test squad for the West Indies series. Though Prithvi Shaw was preferred over him in the first Test match against West Indies, he is expected to make his debut for India in the near future.

He has been in ominous form ever since last season. He played 13 innings in the 2017-18 season and scored 1160 runs at an astronomical average of 105.45 including 5 centuries. He played his career best knock of 304* this season.

He has a first-class cricket career average of 50.32 which proves his consistency levels. He is almost certain to get a chance to play for India in the near future given his rich vein of form.
