IPL 2023 looks devoid of exciting young talent, says former India captain Sunil Gavaskar

India Today  

Former India captain and one of the most legendary cricketers to play the game Sunil Gavaskar has written a scathing column criticising the Indian Premier League. Gavaskar has argued that there has been a dearth of exciting young talent in all departments of the game this season and he does not expect that to change in the near future. ".unless there are some hidden gems yet to be unearthed, the fast bowling department, the opening batting and spin bowling sections are looking devoid of any exciting talent," Gavaskar has written in his column. The spinners hardly ever change the pace at which they deliver and by bowling flatter they seem like medium pacers, which is exactly what the batters are looking for," Gavaskar has argued.
