10 Uncapped Indians to watch out for in IPL 2016
5. Eklavya Dwivedi (GL):
Uttar Pradesh’s Eklavya Dwivedi will be a part of Gujarat Lions and will play under the captaincy of his state teammate Suresh Raina. The wicketkeeper batsman is a treat to watch when he gets going and has the ability to hammer bowlers to all corners of the ground. During the 2016 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, Dwivedi was UP’s highest run-scorer with 258 runs in nine matches at 51.60. That paid off handsomely for him, as he was bought by the Gujarat outfit for Rs 1 crore. His record in T20 cricket is solid. His 34 matches have produced 765 runs at an average of 40.26 including 3 fifties and he strikes at an impressive 130.10. He has taken 18 catches and effected 8 stumpings.
