Not sure, if we have thread for this fellow....if so, mods pls merge ...

I though he may be little old for U-19's.....

Also, he reminds me of NZ's Jessie (Ryder) when he bats

Most notable feature of his batting is his very relaxed posture.....Also he plays pull shot very well.......he also has big shots in his armery....

He took a good catch when keeping....

He seems decent with gloves

With dhoni becoming liability to ODI team, is this guy ready for top job?

Also, he has a problem outside the off stump I guess. And he looks to me to be always playing from the crease. I will not jump the gun and want him a place in the senior side this early.

Dhoni isn't a liability, it is his captaincy which has become a liability. Going by Pant's recent scorecards he seems to be a quick scorer at the top.

The two players who will make it to Indian team (LOI's) eventually imo is sarfaraz (been a fan for a while now ) and Mahipal lomror .

Sarfaraz : A Dhoni replacement . Him and Hardik Pandya are the only talents I have been excited  in pat couple of years . I like the confidence , the game awareness & looks mentally very strong . This kid is ready to play for India .

Mahipal Lomror :  Still early days , but I was surprised to see how similar his technique & stance was to Raina . Looks a very good timer who can develop into a good finisher may be .The bowling off course is what makes him a very good package .

Sarfaraz has to mature a bit more in terms of keeping his wicket and playing shots. He just tries too many things sometimes. But, then he is young and I am sure he will mature and make it big for India.

I was impressed with Lomror. You made a good point. He does remind me of Raina.

Rishab Pant has a distinct weakness while playing on and around the off-stump.  He has to rectify this.

It was good to see that he is capable of curbing his natural instinct and playing sensibly when the situation demands.

Lomror is not getting the headlines or big bucks but I feel he is the better potential bat than Pant.  Pant may do well, but so far it looks like he's a bit of a leg-side bully.  Against u19 bowlers that might be fine, but at higher levels will be found out unless he can expand his game.

Pant has a problem on the off-side. Often....He sort of slices the ball while playing there.

He is young and should be able to rectify this.

These u19 guys are not finished products but are raw talent that need to be moulded.

It's funny some guys want ready made cricketers like Dhoni does lol, Pant is an outstanding talent, he drives very well, plays well on on side, has gud hand eye coordination n gud balance plus ability to change gears at this age which is phenomenal

Well said

We have to see which of these boys become men ....

Virat has done very well and others have faded away

This U19 indian team is very talent ....i expect atleast 2 players to play for india in next 2 to 3 years....

One wkt keeper / batsmen and one allrounder

Lomror is 16 yrs old, yet can smash the ball (scored 24 in the last over of the innings yesterday), plus a good bowler for his age.  A yuvraj in making.

Don't know why but my gut feeling says Ishan Kishan is the real deal.

Looks a bit like Kohli and hairstyle is copied as well.:cantstop:

At the moment, he is the one who has not yet completely come to the party. An ideal occasion though in the semis to come good.
