The pace sensation from Haryana, Navdeep Saini is hailed as India’s most exciting upcoming seamer. With his ability to use his speed with accuracy even on flat surfaces and variations like slower balls, bouncers and toe-crushing yorkers at his disposal, the right-arm fast bowler has all the ingredients of becoming a match-winner for the Men in Blue.

The young pacer from Karnal was a revelation for IPL franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the 2019 edition of the T20 Championship. Making his debut in the tournament, Saini was impressive with his raw pace and accuracy. He had bowled the fastest delivery of his career in IPL 2019 by clocking the ball at a lethal pace of 152.85 kmph.

Saini had ended the 2019 edition of the tournament with 11 wickets under his belt at an economy rate of 8.27 and average of 36.09. His performance in the league had also earned him a place in the Indian team against West Indies in August 2019.
