#11 Piyush Chawla
At the time of the 2007 World T20, Chawla, who did not play a single match in the tournament, was merely 18-years old and widely regarded as the "next big thing" in Indian cricket; however, eleven years on, his career has hardly taken the trajectory which many expected it to take.
Chawla only made a few appearances following the World T20 after which he was dropped from the Indian side in 2008 after a poor Asia Cup, losing his spot in the side to the likes of Pragyan Ojha and Amit Mishra. However, Chawla made a surprise return to the side for the 2010 World T20 (where he would actually play and make his T20I debut) and the 2011 ICC World Cup, which India would go on to win.
Post the 2011 World Cup, barring a few games in the 2012 World T20 and a one-test comeback later the same year, Chawla has not made any other international appearances and is currently not in the fray for selection to the national side. However, despite this, he has emerged as a canny customer for the Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL and has put in decent performances in domestic cricket, first for Uttar Pradesh and now for Gujarat.
