The search for that rare breed of left arm pace bowler will have to continue. Natarajan was a good stop-the-flow/back up bowler but no way a match winning bowler in tests with 129/130 speeds. India have this gap to fill to add more variety to their attack.

We don't have any on radar. 2 u19 bowlers from the last 2 WC are OK but are still definitely work in progress.
Khalil and Unadkat is best we can do ATM.

Even without left armer India would continue to dominate in cricket.

Natarajan is good for LOIs. In tests, we don't have any.

Where is Barinder Stan?
There's a lot of buzz about this left arm bowler on social media. Don't know how good he actually is.

Obviously not the same class but a hint of Amir. That whippy wrist and at the crease before the release.
I don't think India should rush into picking any left-arm pacer just for the sake of playing one. The best pacers for India at the moment are all Right Arm bowlers which in fine as far as I am concerned. If someone comes along and performs well on A Tours and in domestic, India for sure will include him in the XI.
