Indian Cricket Team is the best cricket team in the world. Our group’s players are our class apart and exceptional performers. The world’s players look up to Indian Cricket Team for the game’s spirit and technique. However, some of our favorite cricketers struggled a lot in their early days. Let us find out who they were!
MS Dhoni
Yes, our favourite cricketer Dhoni had to see a lot of failures in his early days, and he was seen constantly struggling to make a mark in the team. Dhoni played his debut match against Bangladesh in 2004, where he could not score any runs and got out at zero. Dhoni was run out while playing with Mohammed Kaif for India, and Khaled Mashud took his wicket.
Virat Kohli
The leading batter of the world at present, Virat Kohli, is called the King of Cricket. However, Kohli had a very forgettable debut in International Cricket, and he played against Sri Lanka in 2008, where he could score only 12 runs off 22 balls. Kulasekara took his wicket and got him out in a leg before the wicket.
Sourav Ganguly
Sourav Ganguly is one of the finest captains the Indian Cricket Team has had. All the millennials remember him being the captain of India while they were growing up. However, the former President of BCCI, Ganguly, had a flop debut in 1992. His first match was against West Indies, where he could score only three runs before losing his wicket.
Shikhar Dhawan
The Gabbar of the Indian Cricket Team, Shikhar Dhawan, has played a vital role in India’s several ICC Tournaments. He is one of the most reliable and dependable players in the Indian team. However, even he had a pretty sad debut. He played his debut match against Australia in 2010, where he lost his wicket without scoring any runs.
Umran Malik
Indian fast bowler Umran Malik is relatively new to the team; however, even he had a very forgettable debut in T20 International against Ireland. He played for India, where he got to bowl just 1 over where he gave away 14 runs.
