Shining lights of World Cricket.

This article looks into the new up and coming talents in the world of cricket.As cricket is a rare sport with focus
on both team and individual players ,I hope this article will be an exciting one too. The fan of sport,specially in cricket seems to rather get excited when they see some young talents with big potential. to put it short, Fans are somehow obsessed with young cricketers because there is a potential in a young player and fantasy in the fan's mind that one day that young player will go on to smash all the records in the book.After all, the fantasy ,expectation and suspense revolving around a cricket match and a cricket player is big part of the game of cricket.
So here is the list of few exciting young players,who might one day smash many record books.

1. Patrick Cummins.
          He is the sensation,hot topic in the cricket world right now. He was already a star when he debuted for NSW as a 17 year old and his speed were met with admiration around the circle.But when he made International debut for Australia as 18 year old in recently concluded south african tour to Australia, is when people finally believed in his potential. He is too good for an 18 year old. His debut performance in each format reads : T20:3-25, ODI:3- 28 and Test match:7 wickets and 13 crucial runs. that too against South Africa at their own backyard.
Pat Cummins is the hottest young cricketers around.

2.Darren Bravo
      Took his time but he is finally looking his best now. Only 22 yo.He resembles the Certain Brian Charles Lara and the resemblance of looks,techniques,that higher back-lift,that eye-catching shot,even the corresponding stats between the cousins are uncannily similar.If he can be even half the player Lara was,West Indies will be in a good place.He is the potential next big batsman.

3.Steven Finn
    The tallest international cricketer around.Only 22 yo.His accuracy and speed is likened to great Aussie bowler Glenn Mcgrath and he has already taken 50 test wickets in his 12 test matches.And he was the only shining light for the English team playing the ODI series in India this October.

4.Virat kohli
       He is only 23 yo and is already one of the best batsman in ODIs. He has more or equal centuries in ODI format than any English batsman, aussie batsman(bar Ponting),Kiwi batsman and not to talk about the minnows Bangladesh and Zimbabwe.Thats how great he is.Still waiting for his chances to prove his potential in Test arena.But looking at his hunger to get runs,solid techniques and eagerness,he is a certain to be one of the best batsman around for next 15 years or so.

5.Kane Williamson
       Another highly rated Batsman, very down to earth and very disciplined.Only 21 years old but has shown enough promises.People rate him as the kiwi batsman with the best techniques among kiwi batsman of last 20 years.Has already 4 international centuries to his name in his short career.He is the shining light for Newzealand.
