IPL 2019: Top 5 U19 players to look forward to

#1 Mujeeb ur Rahman (Kings XI Punjab)

Zadran was KXIP's trump card last year

Unlike the previous mentions in this list, the Afghan off-spinner is already an international superstar at the tender age of 17. Kings XI Punjab were clever enough to gain his services for INR 4 crores last year, and there has not been any looking back ever since.

Rahman played 11 matches for Ravichandran Ashwin's team in IPL 11, in which he picked up 14 wickets. Moreover, he conceded runs at an impressive economy rate of under 7 runs per over.

Having played for teams like Brisbane Heat in the Big Bash League and for Comilla Victorians Bangladesh Premier League, Rahman has only got better and will be ready to reproduce his magic this year.

Alongside his skipper, the Rahman-Ashwin duo might prove deadly for the batters. KXIP's other spinning options include Varun Chakravarthy and Murugan Ashwin.
