Jaydev Unadkat would feel hard done by for missing out on tour of Sri Lanka, says Sanjay Manjrekar

Sanjay Manjrekar said that it is hard to see Jaydev Unadkat being included as just a net bowler considering he has played for India and is an experienced bowler in first class cricket.

Jaydev Unadkat is unlucky to have missed out on a spot in the Indian team for the limited overs tour of Sri Lanka, according to former batsman and commentator Sanjay Manjrekar. Manjrekar said that it is hard to see Unadkat being included as just a net bowler considering he has played for India and is an experienced bowler in first class cricket. "I wonder whether they would have included Unadkat as a net bowler considering his experience and he's an India player, a seasoned First-Class bowler. He's unlucky to miss out. When you look at the seam department, it's not the strongest because the quality bowlers are playing Test cricket for India," Manjrekar told ESPNCricinfo. Unadkat was in stellar form in the 2019/20 Ranji Trophy, which was the last time India's premier first class tournament was held with the 2020/21 season cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. He was the highest wicket taker in the tournament with 67 scalps at an average of 13.23 and led Saurashtra to the title.
