Greatest Indian Test XI of the 21st century in Australia

#11 Umesh Yadav

The fast and fit Vidharba lad burst onto international cricket after he was found to be bowling at real pace, clocking in excess of 150 in the domestic circuit.

Umesh was a promising young lad when he was picked up for the 2011-12 tour of Australia where India lost 0-4 to the Aussies. But Yadav was a positive to come out from the series when he picked up 14 wickets in 4 matches at an average of 39 but in a series where Australians bashed every Indian bowler, it was a good performance. It included a brilliant five-wicket haul at WACA, Perth.

Umesh Yadav has picked up 25 wickets on Aussies soil which when compared to Ishant Sharma who has played 3 tours in Australia and has only managed to pick up 20 wickets at a dismal average I'm excess of 62.

This time around Umesh Yadav has more support in Bumrah and Shami and it will be a record-breaking and a historic series win for India in Australia for the first time if they all pull up their socks, bend, hit the deck hard and pitch it in right areas.
