Potential Superstar Cricket Players to Look Out For

08/20/2021 at 2:50am EDT

It’s always a good indication when we witness new emerging superstars jolting the doors of international cricket based on their loads of performances on the local circuit. There have been several standout players establishing a name for themselves over the past few years. In this post, I have compiled a list of five young cricketers who have the potential to become superstars provided they continue their development.

# 1: Shaheen Afridi-Pakistan-Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

Shaheen Afridi, who debuted in late 2018, had a good rookie year in 2020. Shaheen can be a formidable danger by consistently bowling precise yorkers, which are complemented by several different variations. Pakistan will hold him to a higher standard because their country is preparing to disrupt the next World T20 tournament.

# 2: Will Pucovski-Australia-Victoria

Australian all-rounder Will Pucovski made his Test debut for his country in the opening match of the series against India. The score of 62 he got in his maiden innings will allow us to get a brief glimpse of why he should be placed alongside David Warner in Test cricket. Pucvski could earn a plausible starting position for the rest of the series. You can even place a wager on him to achieve this with many online bookies. Make sure to read this Bet365 complete review to find out how.

# 3: Kyle Jamieson-New Zealand-Surrey

In just six Tests, New Zealand fast bowler Mitchell McClenaghan has managed to pick up 36 Test wickets, with four five-wicket hauls to boot. One of the current generations of emerging fast bowlers in international cricket, he'll be exciting to watch. His dream-come-true debut year (2020) ended up offering him the privilege of occupying a two-bowling seat in Tests and One-Day Internationals (ODIs).

# 4: Dom Sibley-England-Warwickshire

In the time since his England debut in December of 2019, Sibley has been sensational and hit two match-winning hundreds. Criticism of his technique has never ceased, but Sibley's unwavering perseverance to consistently land in the crease is his greatest asset. The chance to bat all day appeals to him, and he is rooting for an England solution to the team's opening batting problem in 2021.

# 5: Nicholas Pooran-West Indies-Melbourne Stars

This year, Nicholas Pooran led the West Indies team with the most runs in the T20 Blast. It is the first time the West Indies have selected a left-handed batter in the team since his debut. Pooran is looking forward to his international bowling debut on Saturday as he takes on England. The options he has available to him include a T20 World Cup and an IPL tournament.

Final Thoughts

We are blessed with lots of exciting young cricket talent coming through the ranks and it looks like this next generation will be something special. Many names are missing from the list that you should look into if you want to follow the best prospects in the world. These include; Tom Banton from England, Shubman Gill from India, Rishabh Pant from India, Zak Crawley from England, Rachin Ravindra from New Zealand, and Josh Philippe from Australia.
