Indian pacer Jaydev Unadkat, who made a comeback to Test cricket after a gap of 12 years, said that he never felt any pressure on replacing Kuldeep Yadav.
Kuldeep's exclusion in the 2nd Test against Bangladesh had triggered a controversy, but Unadkat in an interview with news agency PTI revealed he was always calm and relished the challenge.

Unadkat, who made a comeback to the Test side having made his debut back in 2010, took 3 wickets on his return to the longest format.
In January this year, he had tweeted a picture of a red ball, asking for 'another chance' - a tweet that went viral after he was picked for the Test series against Bangladesh.
Unadkat also took to Twitter on Tuesday to tweet pictures of his jerseys from his two Tests to date, 12 years apart, jerseys that were signed by the team and the coaching staff. He captioned the image, 'To the journey of all those years in between.'
