Highest run scorers of Under-19 World Cups: Where are they now?

2008- Tanmay Srivastava

Tanmay Srivastava didn’t quite capitalize on his early success

The top-scorer of the tournament that was held in Malaysia with 262 runs, Tanmay Srivastava inspired India to their second under 19 world cup triumph. However, he was one of those players who showed early promise but failed afterwards.

In 2009, the Uttar Pradesh southpaw was one of the better openers in the Indian domestic cricket. Strong performances in the Under-19 level got him a place in the Challenger Series even before he could play first-class cricket for UP.

He was contracted by Kings XI Punjab for the IPL, and he followed it up with a strong first-class season, ending as UP's leading run-getter in 2008-09. However, he couldn’t quite continue his run of form afterwards and features for Uttar Pradesh in the domestic tournaments.

Although still a regular member of UP’s Ranji trophy team, his last List A match came in 2014 and last T20 match came in 2013.
