The New Wave: Top 5 Young Players Set for ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup Debut
Here’s a compilation of five emerging stars gearing up for their World Cup debut in the ODI format. Each one possesses the potential to make a significant mark for their teams in the prestigious ICC tournament.
Shubman Gill
At only 24, Shubman Gill has carved out a significant place for himself in Indian cricket, showcasing immense batting prowess. He played a key role in India’s U-19 World Cup victory in 2018.
Earning the Orange Cap in IPL 2023 with 890 runs in 17 games, and accumulating 1230 runs from 20 One-Day-Internationals, Gill’s World Cup debut in 2023 might be a defining moment for his bright future.
Suryakumar Yadav
Earning a spot in team India wasn’t a straightforward path for Suryakumar Yadav. While some cricketers contemplate retirement at his age, his standout performances in the IPL secured him a T20I debut for India in 2021 when he was 31.
Despite being a ‘late bloomer’, Suryakumar’s World Cup debut is eagerly anticipated, given his impact in T20Is.
Although he’s faced challenges in ODIs, his aggressive batting prowess, capable of dismantling any bowling lineup, led to his selection in India’s World Cup squad. His addition brings a thrilling dynamic to India’s batting ensemble.
Cameron Green
Since making his international debut in 2020, Cameron Green’s ascent in the cricketing world has been noteworthy. At 24, he’s solidified his role in all three formats for Australia.
As a right-arm fast-medium bowler, skilled middle-order batsman, and exceptional fielder, he’s a force to be reckoned with. With such talent, Green’s World Cup debut is highly anticipated, marking him as a player to watch on any global stage.
Harry Brooks
Harry Brooks, at 24, is a dynamic power hitter from England, perfectly aligned with the demands of white-ball cricket due to his knack for smashing huge sixes.
His notable performances in Test matches initially caught attention, but it’s his explosive batting that adds depth to England’s lineup.
While the ECB initially bypassed him for the provisional ODI World Cup squad, Jason Roy’s fitness issues opened the door for Brooks’ anticipated World Cup debut.
Bas de Leede
Emerging from a cricket-rich lineage, with his father, Tim de Leede, having graced three World Cups, Bas de Leede is a notable all-rounder for the Netherlands.
As the country makes its comeback to the World Cup scene, Bas’s World Cup debut is eagerly awaited, especially given his significant contributions.
During the ODI World Cup 2023 qualification, the 23-year-old secured 15 wickets, with a standout 3/42 performance against the 1996’s champion, Sri Lanka.
As these five young talents gear up for their World Cup debut, the stage is set for some unforgettable performances. Which of these debutants will leave an indelible mark on the history of the World Cup?
