3) Harpreet Brar – Punjab Kings (PBKS)

Harpreet Brar

Harpreet was bought by Punjab Kings in the 2018 IPL auction. He didn’t make an appearance until this year’s IPL season. The 25-year-old made headlines for his stunning performance of 3/19 against RCB, which included the prized wickets of Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell and AB de Villiers.

Harpreet follows the Ravindra Jadeja template – maintaining tight lines while wreaking havoc with the willow. In his debut match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Harpreet played a quick cameo of 20 that propelled his side towards a decent score. It wasn’t enough to win the match but is surely enough to put him on the selectors radar for the future.


4) Riyan Parag – Rajasthan Royals (RR)

The right-handed batsman from Assam was bought by Rajasthan Royals in the 2019 IPL auction. In a 2019 league match against Delhi Capitals, Parag became the youngest player to score a fifty in the history of the IPL. Although his team eventually lost the game rather poorly, Parag managed to impress.

He has shown he is one for the future in the scarce opportunities presented to him. Not only can he implement the modern game’s aggressive playstyle, his leg-breaks can come in handy in the middle overs. Parag is also a safe-catcher, pouching six catches in seven games of IPL 2021.


5) Ravi Bishnoi – Punjab Kings (PBKS)

The leggie from Rajasthan made a name for himself after an excellent performance in the 2020 U-19 World Cup. He picked up 17 wickets and ended up as the highest wicket-taker in the tournament. He was picked up by Punjab in the 2020 IPL auction and went on to make his debut in the same season.

The 20-year-old picked up 12 wickets at a commendable economy of 7.37 in the 2020 IPL held in UAE. He was kept on the sidelines initially for IPL 2021 but came into the team as the first phase progressed. His excellent economy in the T20 format makes him a potential candidate for the T20 World Cup. Bishnoi was unfortunate to miss out on the Sri Lanka series but has a bright future ahead.
