With the rise of RP Singh, Praveen Kumar and more recently Bhuvneshwar Kumar, the state of Uttar Pradesh has become the breeding ground for future India pacers of late. The latest sensation who could extend this trend over the coming years is the exciting Kartik Tyagi.
The 19-year-old Hapur native is set to undertake his maiden Indian Premier League campaign after being snapped up by the Rajasthan Royals. Tyagi’s claim to fame are his performances in the U-19 World Cup earlier this year, though he has long been touted as a youth prodigy.
As he gets ready for his debut IPL campaign in the UAE, young Tyagi spoke to Sport360 in a Zoom chat. See what the Indian pace hope had to say in the video posted above.
