So let's take a look at the top five players who can make it big in this year's IPL
1) Prithvi Shaw: India's U-19 World Cup winning captain has already started to impress one all with his excellent performance for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy and in the U-19 World Cup. Shaw averaged 56 in the ten first-class matches he has played and has scored his runs at a blistering strike rate of 73.92.
Shaw is a wonderful front foot player and his timing of the ball is a joy to watch. Moreover, he is an excellent fielder and a complete package.
Delhi Daredevils spent 1.2 crores to buy Shaw and will be looking at him as a possible opener for them
2) Kamlesh Nagarkoti: Undoubtedly the most exciting player from the Indian U-19 team was Kamlesh Nagarkoti. He became an overnight sensation after the videos of him bowling at 140 Kmph went viral online.It was his spell of 3/29 against a strong Australia side which stole everyone's attention to him. He will be playing alongside Mitchell Johnson which would be a great chance for him to develop as a bowler.
3) Shubhman Gill: Another batsmen from the U-19 team that raised everyone's eyebrows was Shubhman Gill. It was his unbeaten 102 against the rivals Pakistan that drove him to fame.
Post the World Cup, Gill hit a fantastic 123* (122) against a strong Karnataka side in the Vijay Hazare Trophy which was particularly impressive because his side was in a difficult situation and he pulled them out of trouble. He will be a very exciting player in the upcoming IPL and is already a favorite among KKR fans
