5 promising players who could not make their debut in 2018

#2 Kamlesh Nagarkoti

Bowling at a speed of 145+, Kamlesh not only surprised, surprised opposition but the selectors as well

With constant bowling at the speeds of 145+, Kamlesh not only surprised his opposition teammates in Under-19 world cup but grabbed the attention of the senior team selectors as well.

He grabbed 9 wickets in 6 matches in the Under-19 world cup. This got him an IPL contract with Kolkata Knight Riders, who bought him at a huge sum of Rs 3.2 crores.

But the fortune did not allow a smooth ride for him. He was pulled out of the tournament with a foot injury. He made a comeback later in the year.

He made his debut for Rajasthan in List-A cricket. He again shot into the fame by claiming a hat-trick against Gujarat. He was retained by Kolkata Knight Riders for IPL 2019 as well, which showed the trust of the franchise on him even after he did not play for them.

His injuries prevented him to make a debut for India this year but he will be hoping to change that next year.
