After Kapil Dev, if there was any bowler who could rattle the batsman with pace and bounce, it was Javagal Srinath. One of the finest limited bowlers for India, he led the Indian pace attack in the 90s. Having played in 229 ODIs and 67 Tests, he captured over 550 wickets in the international arena. Particularly, he was a dangerous white-ball bowler with a strike rate of 37.89 and an economy of less than 4.50.

He is still the second-highest wicket-taker for India in ODIs behind Anil Kumble. He had all the weapons in his arsenal that is required for the T20s. He would be the front-line pacer of any franchise if he was playing now. He could bowl raw pace with the new ball and deploy variations in the death. Taking all this into consideration, every team would be willing to have a quality fast bowler like Srinath.
