Kamlesh Nagarkoti (KKR)
The pace sensation who grabbed all eyeballs while playing in the 2018 U-19 World Cup for his blistering pace is the one to certainly watch out for. Having made his List A debut for Rajasthan just a year prior in the 2016 Vijay Hazare Trophy, he was a hotcake in last year’s IPL auctions. Ultimately it was KKR who managed to bag the teenage sensation for a record 3.2 crores!
No doubt, having garnered huge limelight from fans and legends alike, he was one of the biggest prospects in last year’s IPL. However, to the dismay of the millions watching the richest cricket tourney in the globe, he incurred a foot injury that ruled him out of the entire tournament.
A year after, KKR had been wise enough to not let go of the talented young pacer! Fit and fine this season, Kamlesh Nagarkoti will be sternly looking to erupt fire on the pitch and justify both his price tag as well as the hype around him. Are we looking at the next Indian success story with the white or red ball? This IPL will sure give the answer.
