Ind vs NZ 2016: Predicted XI for the 3rd Test

#11 Umesh Yadav

Umesh Yadav has to be among the wickets in Indore

Perhaps the player with most to play for during the third Test will be Umesh Yadav. With the exceptional performance of Bhuvneshwar Kumar in the second Test and the imminent return of Ishant Sharma, Umesh Yadav must step up.

While he might have a greater chance of breaking into the playing XI while India play abroad, he finds it a tougher task on spinning tracks at home. He only managed one wicket in the first Test and will be desparate to put in a better showing.
