5 Indian players who are likely to make their International debut in 2019

#1 Shubham Gill

Gill is praised as the next big thing in Indian Cricket

Shubman Gill was the vice-captain of the Indian U-19 team which won the ICC U-19 World Cup early this year. He was the second highest run-getter in the tournament scoring 372 runs from his six games. The top-order batsman averaged 124 runs per game scoring runs at a strike-rate of 112.38.

The 19-year-old right-hand batsman continued his rich vein of form in the Indian Premier League too. Playing for KKR, Gill scored 203 runs from his 11 runs scoring runs at an impressive strike-rate of 146.04.

Gill is maintaining a List A average of 47.7 from his 37 games since 2017. He has already scored four centuries. His statistics in First-Class matches are far more impressive. The Punjab cricketer has scored 739 runs from just 10 innings at a batting average of 82.1.

Gill's scintillating double century against Tamil Nadu in a Ranji trophy game gained everyone's attention. He is touted as the next big thing in Indian cricket.
