Rising star Sai Sudharsan has had a stellar run in the last 12 months. He has won the TNPL, Deodhar Trophy, Irani Cup, and County Championship (playing for Surrey) this year. His batting exploits in the 50-over Vijay Hazare tournament helped Tamil Nadu make the knockouts, which culminated in his India call-up for the ODI series against South Africa.
In his debut against South Africa in the first ODI, he looked very comfortable facing a strong Proteas’ bowling unit and scored a match-winning half-century in tough conditions.
Sai Sudharsan’s journey has been quite remarkable since the time his name began doing the rounds in the 2021 TNPL season where he was the second best run-scorer with an impressive 358 from eight matches. He scored five half-centuries at a strike-rate of over 140 for his team Lyca Kovai Kings.
