He Has Been Given Those Whites To Represent India – Dinesh Karthik

Speaking to Cricbuzz, Indian wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik believes that Jaydev Unadkat is unlikely to make it into the playing XI despite earning a call-up. He also mentioned that when Jasprit Bumrah returns for the Australia series, the veteran bowler may lose his place in the team.

“I think Unadkat might not play this series, to be very honest. There is Umesh Yadav, Mohammed Siraj and Shardul Thakur. There is a good chance he might not end up playing this series, but I think that is okay,” he said.

“The fact that he was rewarded, he has been given those whites to represent India, be part of the team, that matters the most. He might not even find a place in the team for the Australia series, with Bumrah or Shami coming in, we might move on.”

Following the ODI series, India will take on Bangladesh in the first Test of the two-match series at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on December 14. and the second test is scheduled to be played in Mirpur on December 22.
