IPL 2020: 5 youngsters to watch out for

2) Yashasvi Jaiswal

Yashasvi Jaiswal

One of the most heart-warming cricket stories that you will ever come across is that of young Yashasvi Jaiswal. By now, almost everyone is aware of how Jaiswal would sleep in tents and sell gol-gappas outside the ground to support himself. Today, he finds himself as one of the brightest up-and-comers in India, having had a dream run at the Under-19 World Cup 2020.

Jaiswal amassed 400 runs in the high-profile tournament, and top-scored for his side in almost every single match. If that wasn't enough, he often found himself among the wickets as well with his right-arm off spinners. He also holds the record of being the youngest player to score a double hundred in List A cricket.

Being a player who has experienced hardships at a very young age, Jaiswal has shown that he is far beyond his years. Having been picked up for the Rajasthan Royals for a whopping Rs. 2.4 crore, Jaiswal would be hungry to prove that he's worthy of higher honors.
