Ravi Bishnoi
Lucknow Super Giants and India spinner Ravi Bishnoi remains hopeful of getting selected for the T20 World Cup.
However, Bishnoi's performance in IPL-17 has been on the odd side. He has bowled 25 overs in nine matches and claimed only five wickets, out of which three has been taken in the Powerplay.

Bishnoi last played a T20I match against Afghanistan and only managed to claim two wickets in three matches.
With Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja almost certain to get named in the squad, it will be very difficult for the selectors to pick a third spin bowling option.
"I also want to play it, but it would be better if this work is left to the selectors only. My responsibility is to perform well for the side. I was on the standby in the last World Cup," said Bishnoi on Monday.
