The ICC Cricket World Cup is done and dusted. Team India has started working on the next target. Lots of young and talented players have been included in the team. I am sure young players will try to cement their position. I am extremely excited for batter Rinku Singh who has been doing very well at the domestic and IPL. Rinku has shown his temperament at the recently concluded series against Australia.

I am sure he will carry forward his form. His rise from a very humble upbringing is amazing and inspiring. He has moved the entire cricketing world with his success story and I hope he comes up with great knocks during the forthcoming series in South Africa.

Like him I am also waiting to see Ravi Bishnoi and Mukesh Kumar. Both the bowlers look promising and can find their place in the Indian team. Another swashbuckling opener Yashasvi Jaiswal is another rising star. The cricketing world is waiting to this young star also. Yashasvi is very talented, has potential to be a great player in times to come if he performs consistently. So the forthcoming tour of South Africa will give many new players to India for international matches. Let’s wait and watch.
