#5 Fast bowlers (Pradeep Sangwan, Siddarth Kaul, Ajitesh Argal)

Pradeep Sangwan was one of the most promising fast bowlers in that Indian U-19 team as he could swing the ball back into the right-handers. But, he struggled with consistency at the first-class level.

Sangwan still plays first-class cricket for Delhi and was picked by the Delhi franchise for the inaugural IPL edition. The 29-year-old doesn’t have an IPL contract now and is not in the plans of the Indian selectors.

Siddarth Kaul played for India not too long back and he is still not too far away from the national set-up. He is one of those 'fringe' bowlers in white-ball cricket who have the chance to play for India if the first-choice bowlers aren’t fit and available. Kaul has an IPL contract with Sunrisers Hyderabad as well.

Ajitesh Argal’s professional cricketing career is over now. The man of the match for India in the final is now an Inspector in the Income Tax department in Vadodara. Quite a shift from winning your country the U-19 World Cup, isn't it?
