Jaydev Unadkat made his debut for the Kolkata Knight Riders in 2010 and has since played for the Royal Challengers Bangalore and Delhi Capitals. He returned to KKR in 2016, only to find himself with a new team the following year, as the Rising Pune Super Giants signed him in the 2017 auction. His switch to the Pune-based franchise was pivotal in his career, as he returned with 24 wickets in just 12 matches. His outstanding performance for Pune prompted RR to spend a record 11.4 crores in the 2018 auction. Unfortunately, he did not live up to their expectations and was purchased for less money by the same franchise in 2019, 2020, and 2021.

The 31-year-old returned to Test cricket after a 12-year absence in the present series against Bangladesh. He returned to the Test side after a successful domestic season in which he took 13 wickets in West Zone’s Duleep Trophy victory. Over the last six seasons, he has been the leading wicket-tacket in domestic cricket, with an astounding haul of 224 wickets.
