Jaydev Unadkat

Jaydev Unadkat Biography

Once hailed as one of India's brightest pace-bowling prospects, Jaydev Unadkat has since fallen away somewhat. Having ripped through West Indies A with 7 for 41 and 6 for 62 for India A on First-Class debut, expectations of Unadkat were sky-high. A left-arm pacer, his initially appreciable seam and swing made him a delectable prospect for India, but he has failed to deliver on his initial promise.

Unadkat had a fruitful stint for India's otherwise disappointing campaign in the 2010 Under-19 World Cup and continued to impress in the season that followed. However, he soon went off the boil. Handed a surprise Test debut in South Africa in 2010-11, he was taken apart by the likes of Graeme Smith, Alviro Petersen, Hashim Amla, Jacques Kallis, and AB de Villiers. He went for 101 in 26 overs without taking a wicket, as India lost by an innings.

Unadkat has been impressive in his short ODI career but has never enjoyed the confidence of selectors. Unadkat has youth on his side though, and is one of the few left-arm seamers going around. If he gets an extended run in the ODI squad, he can yet turn out to be a future prospect for India.
