India U-19 players who can serve the senior team in future

[maniac]

Look at the 2004 batch and coincide with Greg Chappell's tenure...not bad eh? I mean most of these guys might have been flashes but no denying that they did contribute to some of our more memorable succese in recent times

[jairamesh]

Not many bowlers coming. Late bloomers? or poor youth management of bowling resources?

Reetinder Singh Sodhi :facepalm: Remember him being talked of as the next Kapil once upon a time( after the under 19 world cup i think).:cantstop:

[Needforspeed]

Interesting to see those missing from the U19 list among the players who play for India...Ashwin, Zaheer Khan, Praveen Kumar, Umesh Yadav, Varun Aaron, MS Dhoni, Gautam Gambhir, Pragyan Ojha. So is the selection policy of U19 teams not so good or these guys are late bloomers?

all late bloomers i believe. ashwin was a batsman in his late teens. dhoni too. he played ranji late. i remember in 2003/04 i used to watch ranji scorecards and there would be this guy for jharkand 'dhoni' who would hit centuries every match. umesh started bowling at 18/19.

Dhoni was included in the team mainly because of his list A performances, though he did well in 2004 Ranji matches by scoring 2 centuries in 4 games. Other than that he wasn't good in FC cricket.

then prolly list A. sorry should not have said ranji. domestic scorecards. ppl use ranji as a synonym for domestic.

Gambhir played for India U19 but did not play U19 wc because he passed the age before that. Ojha too was in U19 I guess some time. Dhoni, Ashwin, Zaheer, Yadav they are late bloomers. Aaron played all U19s also performed well but never picked for India U19 because they could not pick too many from the same state as Tiwary and Jaggi were already there.

Dhoni was included in the team mainly because of his list A performances' date=' though he did well in 2004 Ranji matches by scoring 2 centuries in 4 games. Other than that he wasn't good in FC cricket.[/quote'] Dont measure him as a specialist batsman. As a WK/batsman, he was good. Not many keepers had better record than him.

dhoni, sreesanth and many others came from the talent development wing which has since been dismantled by the bcci because it was so productive.
