#1 Washington Sundar
Washington Sundar is one of the most promising young All-rounders in Indian Cricket at present. He has already played for the country and was dropped from the Indian side for the England tour only because of an injury.
Washington was the player of the Series in the Nidadhas Trophy where he single handedly scripted India's victory with the ball. He is a spinner who has the ability bowl under any circumstances and is also a batsman who can bat anywhere in the batting order.
Washington has performed at the highest level with great ease and is a talent which should be protected. It is important that players like him are backed so that he plays to his potential and brings glory for the country.
The third spinner's role in the Indian squad is still up for grabs as Kohli has tried a number of players like Jadeja and Axar Patel with little success. Washington should be given a chance to prove his ability once again in the West Indies T20 Series.
