IPL 2025: These Uncapped IPL Stars Could Be India's Future

Indian Premier League (IPL) has always been a breeding ground for emerging talent, and the 2025 season is no exception. As the tournament progresses, a handful of young, uncapped Indian players have stood out with their performances, showing that they could be ready for the international stage.

Here are three rising stars who've made a strong case for themselves this season:

1. Vaibhav Arora – Kolkata Knight Riders

Right-arm pacer Vaibhav Arora has continued his upward trajectory in IPL 2025. After taking 11 wickets in 10 matches last season, he’s already grabbed 6 wickets in just 4 games this year. Arora has impressed with his ability to swing the new ball and deliver tight spells during the powerplay. His knack for early breakthroughs and economy under pressure make him a strong contender for a spot in India’s T20 squad.

2. Digvesh Rathi – Lucknow Super Giants

Debutant mystery spinner Digvesh Rathi has quietly become one of the finds of the season. In five matches, the young spinner has bagged 7 wickets and emerged as a dependable option for Lucknow in the middle overs. With an economy of under 8 and the ability to keep batters guessing with his variations, Rathi is fast proving that he belongs at this level - and perhaps even beyond.

3. Priyansh Arya – Punjab Kings

Priyansh Arya made headlines with his big-hitting exploits in the Delhi Premier League, including six sixes in an over. Picked up by Punjab Kings for Rs 4 crore, Arya made an immediate impact with a quickfire 47 on debut. But it was his jaw-dropping 103 off just 39 balls against Chennai Super Kings that turned heads across the cricketing world. With 7 fours and 9 sixes in that innings, Arya not only powered Punjab to victory but also became the joint-fourth fastest centurion in IPL history. If he continues in this vein, a Team India call-up might not be far off.
