#1 Suryakumar Yadav

Harbhajan Singh recently tweeted showing his disappointment on the non-selection of Suryakumar Yadav - who captains the Mumbai team and is having a dream run in the domestic circuit. Coming down the order, Yadav scored 392 runs in 10 innings at an average of 56 in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
He is a kind of batsman who can bat anywhere in the order. He can bat at No.5 or No.6 and finish the innings and he can open the innings successfully as well. In the 2018 IPL season, when he was asked to open the batting for Mumbai Indians. He aggregated over 500 runs.
He can play the anchor role and as is aggressive if required. He has a lot of experience playing in the domestic circuit. Suryakumar Yadav with all his batting skills should be on the radar of the selectors and could make a debut for India this year.
