IPL 2023: 5 youngsters to watch out for
Certain young cricketers have proven their mettle in the T20 circuit and could set the IPL 2023 ablaze with their performances.
3. Joshua Little
Joshua Little has been an integral part of Ireland’s team across formats. He has rattled batters with his swing and wreaked havoc with the ball. The 23-year-old has featured in 53 T20Is and bagged 62 wickets at an economy of 7.65. In the ODIs, he has picked up 38 wickets in 25 matches at an economy of 5.64.
Little made the year 2022 his own with his exploits on the cricket field. He featured in 26 T20Is in the last calendar year and picked up 39 wickets at an economy of 7.58. The left-arm pacer displayed his bowling might in the T20 World Cup 2022 as well, taking 11 wickets in seven games at an economy of 7.00.
Therefore, when Little’s turn arrived at the 2023 player auction, Gujarat Titans went all guns blazing to sign him and grabbed the pacer for INR 4.4 crore. The Dublin-born is in the form of his life and would look to weave magic with the ball in his debut IPL season.
