The search for a seam bowling all rounder

          India in search of an all rounder with the tour against Australia. The team selection gives an idea how the management and team are desperate to develop an all rounder in the middle and lower middle order.
          India as struggled with the bat in the middle and lower middle order due insufficient options with the bat in the team ,also the uncertainty form of Raina Dhoni, Rayudu and jadeaja in recent times made the management to look more deep in to the batting that need in the ODI Cricket.
               The squad to the Australian series posses 3 all rounders, who are yet to make their debut for the country in international Cricket. Rishi Dhawan, pandya and gurkeerath mannan made their way in the squad due to their form in domestic Cricket and also due to India's problems in the middle and lower middle order.
               But the question remain to be that whether these players gets a go straight away in the series or not ? With the lites of jadeaja and axar are already settled their place, which makes tough calls for captain cool.
               But the back page says that you need seam bowling all rounders in these  conditions and it's time for MSD to take a new approach to the playing XI to solve the problems they faced earlier. Stuart Binny as been the go to man as a seam bowling all rounder for some time, but he hasn't been able to capitalize on the opportunities given to him.
                The uncapped players are part of the ODI team which makes sense ,they should get their opportunities in the series. If it doesn't happens the selection adds  no meaning to it. But India as to go with them straight away to fix the problems they face in ODI Cricket and especially when they tour outside subcontinent.
