#1 The unsung hero- Washington Sundar

FINAL - ICC Under 19 World Cup
Washington Sundar has picked up 7 wickets in the Nidahas Trophy

The biggest positive for team India in the Nidahas Trophywas the emergence of Washington Sundar. The 18-year-old off spinner was exceptional in the power play overs by controlling the runs and also picking up vital wickets. In 13 power play overs in the Nidahas Trophy, Sudar picked up 6 wickets and conceded 77 runs at an economy of 5.92 which is really impressive for any bowler, never mind a spinner.

Sundar was not afraid to flight the ball and was named as the player of the series. His figures of 3-22 and 0-23 against Bangladesh and 2-28 and 2-21 against Sri Lanka in the group stages of the Nidahas Trophy reflect his contribution to the team's success. Sundar had figures of 1-20 in the finals in 4 overs and was an asset for team India.

Sundar has an economy of 5.67 and average of 15.11 in 6 T20 internationals till date and is definitely the man for the future for Team India in the T 20 format.
