Kuldeep Yadav

Kuldeep Yadav will add a lot more variety to the Indian spin attack if he's picked to replace Jadeja. However, his batting leaves a lot to be desired.

Washington Sundar

Sundar is a definite choice for Team India. He's played at this level before and his batting surely will add more value down the order.

Left-arm spinner from UP took 5-wicket haul, scored 77 against ENG Lions recently. A like-for-like replacement for Jaddu, he'll be an outside choice.
