India vs South Africa 2019: 5 players who have a point to prove in the Test series

#3 Umesh Yadav

To capitalise on Jasprit Bumrah's absence

Jasprit Bumrah's stress fracture helped Umesh Yadav to be picked for the three match series.

It has been a while that Yadav hasn't been part of the Test squad, having last played a Test match against Australia in 2018 at Perth.

In that match, he failed to take a single wicket which might be one of the reasons for him getting ignored for a while. However, there is now an ideal chance for the 30-year-old to earn the management's trust.
