Saurabh Tiwary represents what the Mumbai Indians have to offer in terms of its young talent. But this hard hitting right handed batsman has more than just age on his side. A powerful stroke maker, Tiwary could be one of the unknowns to excel in the IPL.
Having captained Jharkhand at a young age, Tiwary exudes plenty of confidence and leadership skills. The highlight of his career so far has been being a member of the India Under 19 squad that won the World Cup in Malaysia in 2008.
His performance in the second IPL season might not have done justice to his talent, but plenty more opportunities in the coming seasons is definitely on the cards.
