5 players who need a big performance in the next series

4. Washington Sundar

Washington Sundar must produce standout, multi-wicket spells to strengthen his case for a regular place in India’s T20I XI. He often finds himself in a secondary or backup role, with Axar Patel firmly established as a mainstay in the side. Sundar’s ability to contribute with the bat could work in his favour, but he needs to make an impact in both departments. Restrictive bowling and valuable lower-order cameos could force the team management to consider playing two spin-bowling all-rounders.
