Jaydev Unadkat is one among the long list of Indian pacers who never played to their full potential in the International arena. Even though he continued to perform well in the domestic circuit, he has often failed continuously in the big stage.

Representing Rising Pune Supergiant, Unadkat had a stellar IPL 2017 campaign as he claimed 24 wickets in just 12 games. As a result, Rajasthan Royals bought him for a massive sum of INR 11.5 crore in the IPL 2018 auction.

However, the Saurashtra pacer failed to repeat his previous year heroics as he managed to take only 11 wickets from 15 games with a high economy rate of 9.65. Hence, Rajasthan released him ahead of last year's auction.

Surprisingly, Rajasthan once again went for Unadkat in last year's auction and bought him for a massive sum of INR 8.4 crore. However, Unadkat failed for the second consecutive season as he claimed ten wickets from 11 games with an expensive economy rate of 10.66. As a result, we can expect Rajasthan to repeat their last year's strategy of releasing him and resign again for a sum lesser than the previous year's auction.
