#3 Praveen Kumar
A workhorse who was moderate on pace but could get the ball to talk a lot, Praveen Kumar made his debut in the Caribbean in 2011. He played a key role in India's tour to England later that month, shouldering a lot of responsibility but was left out of the side for the next Test series.
Kumar's first-class performances were decent, but was continued to be overlooked. He remained in the ODI setup for some time but was never really in the hunt for a Test spot. Ultimately, he played only 6 Tests for India, picking 27 wickets at 25 apiece.
His last match came at the age of 24. Now with Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah and others emerging, the chances of his comeback look bleak.
