2 IPL performers who can make their debut during the white-ball series
The BCCI has named the squad for the ODI and Test series. Quite a few youngsters are there in the squad along with the senior players. The team of the T20I series is yet to be announced and we will likely see a lot more fresh faces in the team. Youngsters set the stage on fire in IPL and BCCI certainly give them opportunities in the shortest format of the game. In this piece, we will take a look at 2 IPL performers who can make their debut during the white-ball series.
Yashasvi Jaiswal
One of the players that is almost certain to make his debut during the West Indies series is Yashasvi Jaiswal. The young batter has shown great skills in playing the new ball as well as showing a great temperament. He has been named in the team for the Test series and can make his debut in whites. Apart from that he will likely be there for the T20I series as well. The Southpaw was one of the best batters in this year of the IPL as he smashed runs for fun and was one of the main reasons behind the success of the Rajasthan Royals. He was quite aggressive batting at the top of the order as he has come out all guns blazing in all the games and gave his team a fiery start in all the games and eventually won the games for them. He smashed two centuries and also smashed the fastest half-century in the league as he achieved the feat in just 13 balls against KKR. He ended the season with 625 runs to his name.
