India vs Sri Lanka 2017: 5 positives for India from the T20I series

#3 The rise of Jaydev Unadkat

Jaydev Unadkat was the Man of the Series

Jaydev Unadkat, in 2013, was touted to do big things for Indian Cricket Team at the international stage. But somehow he went out of the limelight as well as the team. When brought in back for the recently concluded series, Jaydev knew it was the make or break situation for him.

Someone who would not have watched the game would not know how good the Porbandar-born lad had been throughout the series. The figures of 9-0-44-4 are very good indeed, yet doesn't match his on-field performance. The variations that he brought in his length and pace never let the Lankans settle down let alone score.

Jaydev had the lowest economy rate among all the bowlers from the two sides. At times Unadkat was simply unplayable. He will add more steel in an already revamped Indian bowling unit.
