**Mumbai, India** – The inaugural Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season has unearthed a wealth of young talent, with several newcomers making significant contributions. Leading the pack are Priyansh Arya and Digvesh Rathi, who excelled in the Delhi Premier League and have continued their impressive form on the bigger stage.

Particular attention is being drawn to Digvesh Rathi, a 25-year-old bowler playing for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG). Despite having no first-class cricket experience, Rathi, purchased by LSG at his base price of INR 30 lakh, has quickly established himself as a key player. His recent performance against the Delhi Capitals, where he conceded only 24 runs in four overs, exemplifies his burgeoning talent.

Across nine matches, Rathi has taken nine wickets at an average of 29.11 and an economy rate of 7.27. His impressive performances have even earned praise from cricketing legends. Former India captain Anil Kumble lauded Rathi’s control and ability to prevent boundaries, despite his relative inexperience. Suresh Raina also highlighted Rathi’s strong showing in the Delhi Premier League, citing him as one of the season’s most impressive bowlers.

While Rathi’s exuberant “notebook” celebrations have resulted in fines and demerit points from the BCCI, his exceptional skill and potential remain undeniable, suggesting a bright future for the young Delhi-based bowler.
