The Tamil Nadu based speedster has been in incredible form of late. The lanky youngster plied his trade for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the recently concluded cricketing carnival.

Talking about his domestic season, he has grabbed 35 crucial breakthroughs out of the 38 outings in T20s. Natarajan is currently busy with the Indian team in Australia. The uncapped Indian pacer has been named in the squad in place of the injured Varun Chakravarthy. Eventually, it will be exciting to watch the Young Turk taking on the lethal Australians on the bouncy pitches.

The young budding talent will don the national jersey only to cement his position in the team. Eventually, Virat Kohli and the team management must be looking forward to marshalling the young gun in the middle overs. Bowling alongside the likes of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami, he will learn to polish his craft in the coming days.
