Baba Aprajith
Baba Aparajith was one of the outstanding players in India’s world cup-winning 2012 U-19 world cup campaign. He was the tournament’s fourth-highest run-scorer. Aparajith also performed his job with the ball, taking 5 wickets in 6 matches. He was instrumental in guiding India to victory in the quarter-finals against Pakistan, scoring a crucial half-century. Aparajith continued to play local cricket after the World Cup, and it seemed that he is a future star who would undoubtedly represent India for a long time.
In 2016, Aparajith was purchased by CSK and the Rising Pune Supergiant, however, he was unable to play a single match. His confidence plummeted when he was denied a spot in the IPL, and he vanished entirely.
