Yadav has been the pick of the Indian bowlers this year

Umesh Yadav is one of the many Indian bowlers who display enormous potential but somehow fail to perform to the level they are capable of. He has always displayed brilliant potential but he always lacked discipline.

This year though has been quite different for Umesh as he has bowled brilliantly in the powerplay overs. Though he is still struggling to bowl in the death overs he has the ability to run through the opposition in the initial overs itself.

Kohli's captaincy has made a huge difference to Yadav's bowling as the captain has given him a free hand and the bowler to is performing according to the captain's expectations. He has improved his bowling brilliantly in Tests and there are signs of improvement in his bowling in the shorter formats of the game as well.

Yadav has attacked batsmen with his raw pace and has rattled a number of batsmen. The next World Cup will be played in England and the Indian team will be looking to use three seamers in the Playing XI and Yadav with his marked improvement in his swing bowling can definitely be a great pick.
