4 prodigies of Indian cricket who could not make a big name for themselves

Ambati Rayudu

Ambati Rayudu

2018 was a year to remember for Ambati Rayudu. He had a tremendous IPL season for Chennai Super Kings (602 runs with an average of 43). He was included in the Indian team and received the backing of his captain Virat Kohli as he played few handy knocks for hsi country. A century this year has all but sealed Rayudu's spot in the Indian team.

A quick look at the history tell us that apart from some decent performances in year 2014, the right-hander has had an underwhelming career so far. The chances have been sporadic and never has he got an extended rope to perform.

He captained the India team in the 2004 edition of U-19 World Cup and was impressive during the tournament. After the tournament, he slipped off the radar, dabbled with the ICL, and even had issues with his temperament. However, after a stop start career, he is finally in the team doing justice to his potential.
