Rachin Ravindra: Dan Vettori's Successor
Rachin Ravindra: Dan Vettori's successor?

The son of a former club cricketer, Rachin Ravindra always had cricket in his veins but it was up to him as to how he would utilise his talent and uptil now it seems that he is one destined for a bright future.

Playing in his second ICC U19 World Cup after being a part of the New Zealand squad in the 2016 edition, Rachin wanted a solid showing in his home country. He started off on a strong note in the opening encounter of the World Cup with figures of 3 for 30 against the West Indies.

In his next two matches, he showed why he is considered one of the best all-rounders in the U19 circuit. Firstly, he scored a crafty 117 alongside figures of 2 for 33 against Kenya then he followed it up a masterful 76 and figures of 4 for 32 against the Proteas.

Rachin amassed 233 runs at an average of 38.83 and scalped 13 wickets at an economy rate of 5.3 in total to cap off a successful tournament for him.
