Image Source: Xtra Time[/caption] Bengaluru: Rookie off-spinner Jayant Yadav caught the eyes of all at the nets today during the preparatory camp of the Indian team at NCA. The Haryana born off-spinner, who was recently included in the India squad for the tour of Zimbabwe was called upon to bowl at the nets along with Jharkhand left arm spinner Shahbaz Nadeem. Yadav was seen bowling at the nets to Indian test captain Virat Kohli. After troubling Virat a few times with his off spin, he did go through the defence of Virat. It was a delivery which Ravichandran Ashwin will also feel proud of. Yadav, a big fan of his illustrious senior should consider himself fortunate as he had a long session at the Indian nets with none other than Anil Kumble. The newly appointed India coach gave some valuable tips to both Jayant and Shahbaz Nadeem today. The 26 year old , who played for Delhi Daredevils in IPL 2016 will be touring with the India A team to Australia to take part in the quadrangular series involving A teams of Australia, India, South Africa and National Performance Squad. Yadav had an impressive first class season last year, as he picked up 19 wickets in the Ranji Trophy last season and another 8 in the Vijay Hazare Trophy to emerge as one of the top performers for his state side. After a decent outing in the domestic circuit in the 2015-16 season, the off-spinner got an opportunity to showcase his potential in the Irani Cup where he made the opportunity count, picking up two four-wicket hauls in a winning cause against Mumbai. The talented off spinner dreams of outsmarting the batsmen like R. Ashwin one day. Whether he goes on to fulfill his dreams, only time will say.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayfqTf592bs
