South Africa vs India 2018 : 5 players who can ensure India's first ever test series win against the Proteas

#3 Umesh Yadav

Umesh Yadav has been bowling quick and been amongst the wickets.

A firing Umesh Yadav with his reverse swing could be India's answer to someone like a Kagiso Rabada or Dale Steyn in the oppositions arsenal. He has been playing the second fiddle to Indian spinners during the home season. Now, he might be the lead of the pack. Umesh Yadav has been a much more disciplined and dangerous bowler in recent past. Pitches in South Africa have fast pace and bounce which suits Yadav's bowling well. His pace has gone up and he is no more wayward in his line and length. Kohli and the rest of the team would be hoping Yadav could send a few stumps rolling at crucial phases of the game.
