Moreover, his batting skills give him an edge over others.
#2 Rahul Tewatia

He is a natural leg-spinning all-rounder who has the ability to turn matches around with his aggressive batting style. He has a history of playing some of the best match-winning knocks in the domestic circuit. He has yet to debut for India but his domestic stats in the T20 format are pretty decent with 69 wickets in 92 innings, also he scored 1914 runs in 111 innings.
#1 Washington Sundar
Washington Sundar is a young all-rounder who has already made significant strides in international cricket. He has so far picked up 42 wickets in 46 innings and also scored 135 runs in 17 innings. He is primarily an off-spinner who is also a capable batsman in the lower order. Even though he has not got much chance in the batting part his skills with the bat are pretty decent and he would be the right replacement for Jadeja if he continues to perform well.
