This is not a very familiar name for many cricket fans, but the ones who follow the game closely must’ve heard of him a lot of times. Zahir Khan and Mujeeb Ur Rahman formed a sensational spin partnership in the U19 World Cup and tore apart batting lineups. He is well in contention to make his International debut in the coming months.

Zahir will turn 20 this December and of all the promise he has shown thus far, he really seems like a future superstar. But Rajasthan Royals let him go into the auctions and it is surprising as the club is well known for nurturing young talents like him. There’s a lot of demand for chinaman bowlers these days and in the auction, there will be a lot of franchises interested to earn his services.
