Anil Kumble, a coach and former IPL finalist, has publicly expressed his happiness with the calibre of talent that uncapped players contribute. The renowned leg spinner mentioned some of the 2024 season’s most memorable young players, including Abhishek Sharma and Nitish Kumar Reddy, who have both excelled while wearing the national colours.
Many fans and experts have already talked about the fantastic moments from the event last year, and the excitement for IPL 2025 has begun. The competition showcased not just the skills of seasoned fighters but also up-and-coming young players hoping to have an influence on the world championship.
The public gets to experience the ascent of some uncapped players who are attempting to make a name for themselves on the largest stages in addition to seeing some of the tournament’s greatest players. Some teenage athletes have achieved incredible heights and become international stars thanks to the lucrative league.
Some of the young, uncapped Indian players from the previous season really impressed me. These players—Ashutosh Sharma, Nitish Reddy, Mayank Yadav, Riyan Parag, and even Abhishek Sharma—have all performed exceptionally well.
It is encouraging for the future of Indian cricket to see these uncapped players rise up and show off their skills, frequently taking centre stage from more seasoned international players, Anil Kumble said via JioHotstar.
Speaking of some of these young players, Nitish Reddy has shown some outstanding all-around performances in the Test arena, including scoring his first Test century against the Australian attack in the Boxing Day match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Abhishek Sharma has also impressed in the T20Is, amassing 535 runs at an average of 33.43 and a strike rate of 193.84.
