Duleep Trophy 2024: Talented uncapped players to watch out for

Apart from the established stars, many talented youngsters will be keen to impress with their performances in the ongoing Duleep Trophy to make it into the Indian team.

Let’s have a closer look at some uncapped players to watch out for in the ongoing prestigious domestic tournament.

Tanush Kotian

The Mumbai bowling all-rounder was highly successful in the 2023-24 Ranji Trophy. He has captured 75 wickets at an impressive average of 26.38 and scored 1152 runs at 42.66, including a century and 11 fifties in first class cricket so far. He will look to emulate his feat in Duleep Trophy 2024 to knock at the doors of the Indian team.

Abhimanyu Easwaran

The prolific batter from Bengal has scored over 7,000 runs in 94 First-Class matches. He has been consistently knocking on the doors of the Indian Test team but has yet to find a spot. He will be keen to repeat his performance in the Duleep Trophy.

Musheer Khan

The emerging talent has been performing brilliantly in First Class cricket for the last couple of years. The diminutive batsman has also scored a marathon century in the ongoing Duleep Trophy. Selectors will keep a close watch on him.

Harshit Rana

The 22-year-old pacer from Kolkata Knight Riders impressed during IPL 2024. He captured 19 wickets in 13 matches and played a crucial role in KKR’s victorious campaign. He has also captured 28 wickets from just seven First Class matches. He is considered as a prospect for the Indian team.

Nitish Kumar Reddy

The pace bowling all-rounder is termed as the next Hardik Pandya for India. With Hardik suffering with so many injuries, selectors will keep an eye on him in the ongoing Duleep Trophy. Good performance in the prestigious domestic tournament can give him the much needed confidence to lend a balance to the Indian team.
