3. Kuldeep Yadav

He is not just any other bowler. He has one of the rarest actions in the history of cricket. Call him the mystery chinaman. Being the first chinaman bowler to represent India at the international level was no easy task. But his never say die attitude has helped him cement his place in the Indian side now. The valuable time spent with his Australian counterpart Brad Hogg in the KKR franchise has helped him tremendously. His South Africa domination is no less than a fairy tale where he ended up with 17 wickets to his name.
What to expect?
Except some IPL players, a chinaman's spin is almost alien to the the current English line up. Kuldeep has proven that he can spin in any given condition. Expect him to pick up crucial wickets throughout the tour and produce match winning performances.
