IPL 2018: 5 uncapped players who could use this season as a launch pad to play for India

#4 Khaleel Ahmed

Ahmed has been in good form off-late

Khaleel Ahmed is only a 20-year-old but he has already created waves. He is a left-arm pacer who has the ability to bowl at a speed ranging from 140 to 145 kmph.

Ahmed was a part of the Indian team that finished as runners-up in the 2016 U-19 World Cup.

He has also been a part of Delhi Daredevils in 2016 and 2017 which means he has been mentored by the likes of Zaheer Khan and Rahul Dravid.

Ahmed has been in good form of late. He picked up 17 wickets in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy and 10 wickets in the Vijay Hazare Trophy.

He was bought for a whopping Rs. 3 Crores by Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL auction this year.

A good season could force the national selectors to select him in the near future.
