Amazing platform

In every season a new star is born at the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL). It is amazing to see so many players coming from very humble beginnings and making it big at this platform.  I have already seen the rise of Hardik Pandya, Md. Siraj, Rinku Singh.

Another player of Rajasthan Royals Yashasvi Jaiswal, who once used to sell pani puri with his father, scored his maiden century on Sunday against Mumbai Indians. He is an amazing player. I loved his journey. He would sleep in the tent during his formative years and would assist his father. He is  destined for bigger things. He has already received praise from Virendra Sehwag, Tom Moody and Rohit Sharma. He is only 21, and I am sure he will be an asset for India in times to come.

He deserves praise for what he is doing for his team. Coming from such an ordinary background and playing such wonderful cricket against established players is amazing.
