5 Indian Players who are constantly knocking the doors of Indian selectors

#5. Krishnappa Gowtham

England Lions v India A - Tri-Series International

K Gowtham is another spin bowling all-rounder who hails from Karnataka. He is a right-handed batsman and right arm off-break bowler. He came into limelight from his notable performances in Karnataka Premier League and soon he became an integral part of the Karnataka team.

He was then fast-tracked into India A team for Australia tour of India in 2017 and performed exceedingly well which helped him earn an IPL contract of whooping 2 Crore with Mumbai Indians. Unluckily he did not make into the playing XI due to MI's strong bench strength and was also not considered for A team due to disciplinary issues.

But he continued to perform well in Karnataka Premier League and in Ranji Trophy and this earned him a contract with Rajasthan Royals for IPL 2018. He performed well in all the three departments for RR and even played explosive knocks lower down the order and won matches for his team.

This performance earned him a place in India A squad again and he has performed well in recent series for India A. Another impressive season might give him a place in Indian Squad quickly.
