The Indian Premier League and growth of cricketing talent in India go hand in hand
In a cricket crazy nation like India where the sport is regarded as a religion, the abundant young talent is pipelined and waiting for opportunities desperately. From streets to community parks and from school grounds to national stadiums, cricket is awash
in the country.
The well-established domestic cricket structure of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750 produces many talented players who need a platform to start their International careers. In the past, a big part of this talent was ignored due to lack of chances. However, the Indian Premier League
(IPL) has brought a felicitous message for many uncapped players who can kick-start their careers in style.
Since its inception in 2008, the IPL has provided olive branches to many youngsters. With lucrative opportunities of playing and earning lavishly, the IPL has brought a revolution in Indian cricket. Almost all of the league franchises are owned and operated
by business and media tycoons who hire players from all over the world with heavy prices and the local players find a reasonable place easily.
The success stories of some of the young and talented Indian cricketers who have been groomed by the IPL are as follows.
Iqbal http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Abdullah-c41657, a left-arm spinner of Mumbai, has found a place in the Kolkata Knight Riders. Before this, he made some iconic marks in domestic competitions like Ranji Trophy, where he grabbed 27 wickets. In his side’s opening match of the Trophy, he went
on to score his maiden century as well. He is a good all-rounder and will be able to polish his skills more by playing in the IPL tournament and rubbing his shoulders against cricket rock-stars.
Bhargav Bhatt, a left-arm spinner and the leading wicket taker in the Ranji Trophy, has been hired by Kings XI Punjab. He is just 20-year-old and his performance in domestic cricket has been extra-ordinarily marvelous. He can be a sturdy spinner of the future.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Delhi-c780 Daredevils have picked up another left-arm spinner, Vikas Mishra. Like Bhatt, he has also been impressive and instrumental in the domestic cricket with 15 wickets in the Ranji Trophy and an average of 21.05. The 18-year-old spinner got a lucky chance
to nourish his unripe skills and shine at the International level.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Rajasthan-c837 Royals. He is a rapidly growing pacer with a good line and length. The IPL is an ideal place for him to rise high.
Munish Pandey is a batsman who emerged as the top run scorer of the Ranji Trophy this season. He is also the first Indian to score a century in the IPL. He played in the IPL-3 for Royal Challengers but was picked by Pune http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Warriors-c861 in IPL-4.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sarul-Kanwar-c2457,who piled up 501 in just five matches of the Trophy last year. His marvelous batting skills speak volumes of his inherent talent.
Having scored 535 in the seven games of Ranji Trophy, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nitin-Saini-c79746 has managed to make inroads in Kings XI Punjab.
Along with them, there are some other uncapped players who have found a chance to play for the league, especially in the 2011 edition.
It is a good trend introduced by the league that will motivate the talented players to work hard on the field in order to excel. The IPL has given birth to a healthy competition in the country and the domestic cricket of India has improved its standard to
a great extent since the inauguration of the league. Such type of platforms and competitions must be held as they are instrumental nurseries for the growth of future cricketers.
