Strongest Test playing XI featuring Under-26 players

#7 Lungi Ngidi

Lungi Ngidi

The right-arm fast bowler from South Africa is a real force to reckon with. Lungi Ngidi has the capability to bowl extremely fast - in excess of 140 kph and that too consistently.

The South African player made his Test debut against India on Jan 13, 2018, at Centurion. The youngster impressed one and all with his pace and also got Virat Kohli's wicket in his debut match after some smart bowling.

The 22-year-old has just played 4 Tests till now but is looking like a long-term prospect and apt replacement for Dale Steyn. In the 4 Tests he has played, the speedster has picked up 15 wickets at an average of 19.53 and an economy of 2.84.

The youngster has also become an important part of the Proteas in the shorter formats and if things go according to plan - then he has a bright future ahead of him. Ngidi already finds himself at the 47th place in the Test bowling rankings and will surely climb up the ladder as he gets to play more.
