Uncapped IPL 2024 stars who have made a strong case for T20 World Cup selection

More than two weeks have passed since the 17th edition of the IPL got underway, and the season has witnessed a number of standout performances, especially from uncapped Indian cricketers

With a couple of months to go for the T20 World Cup, we take a look at some of the uncapped players who have made a strong case for selection on the basis of their performances in IPL 2024 so far

LSG pacer Mayank Yadav has been the talk of IPL 2024 with his express pace and control, hitting speeds as high as 156.7 kmph and collecting back-to-back three-wicket hauls along the way

SRH opener Abhishek Sharma has been among the most explosive batters in IPL 2024 so far, collecting 161 runs at an strike rate of 217.56, smashing 63 off 23 balls along the way

KKR pacer Harshit Rana exhibited his death-bowling prowess with a superb final over against SRH, halting a rampaging Heinrich Klaasen to help the Knight Riders collect a thrilling four-run victory

PBKS all-rounder Shashank Singh emerged another strong candidate for the finisher’s role with an unbeaten 61 off just 29 balls that helped Punjab pull off a thrilling victory against GT

It will be hard to ignore Mayank Yadav’s LSG pace colleague Yash Thakur after his match-winning haul of 5/30 — the first five-for of IPL 2024 — against GT

There aren’t many in the world who can smash Rashid Khan for a six in his first delivery in the IPL, and CSK’s Sameer Rizvi did just that not once, but twice in a space of four deliveries
