Ravindra Jadeja
Another spin bowler from the Indian side who can pick wickets in this New Zealand vs India Test series is the left-arm spin-bowling all-rounder, Ravindra Jadeja. Unlike Ravichandran Ashwin, Jadeja had been a part of the ODI and T20I series and the Kiwi batsmen struggled against him in the T20Is.
