Since the Indian Premier League (IPL) was established in 2008, the world of cricket has seen the growth of many players who have never been capped for their country. Numerous players have made their debuts for their countries’ national teams after enjoying success in the Indian Premier League (IPL). After putting up strong performances in the Indian Premier League (IPL), a number of uncapped players from other countries have been called up to play for their respective countries’ national teams. These athletes were able to demonstrate their skills and be rewarded for them in the cash-rich league, which served as a stepping stone on their path to professional stardom.
Shaun Marsh
During the very first season of the Indian Premier League, Shaun Marsh shot to prominence. The southpaw batsman made 616 runs while playing for Kings XI Punjab in the Indian Premier League in 2008. He did it in 11 matches, posting an incredible average of 68.44 and a solid strike rate of 139.68. In addition, he was awarded the orange hat for the season. Marsh maintained his form for the whole of the competition and finished the 2008 Indian Premier League with a century and five half-centuries.
