Best Under-25 XI in One-day Internationals
With the passage of time, dedicated events such as age-specific World Cups and tournaments, have given a platform to the new-age cricketers to rise up the ranks.
10. Jhye Richardson
Despite being discouraged by many to not try fast bowling due to his not-so-tall height and bulky body, Richardson did not lose confidence in his ability and silenced the naysayers. He earned an international call for the 2016 Under-19 World Cup pretty soon after he made his entry in List A cricket in 2015.
Noticeable performances in Big Bash League and Sheffield Shield opened doors for him to enter in the national ODI side in 2018. After a mundane start and being dropped soon, he came back into the team and troubled Virat Kohli in a series against India to stamp his mark. With his ability to bowl with pace, hit the deck hard, and swing the ball, he showed that Australia has another bowler of substance apart from Cummins, Starc, and Hazlewood.
In 37 List A encounters, he has bagged 60 wickets at 29.86. He has featured in 13 ODIs for Australia and has 24 wickets at 28.75 and a strike rate of 29.5.
