Hrithik Shokeen is a proper nobody.

Doesn't even have any KPL/TNPL/recent domestix stats to fall on.

Former India U19 but his last cricket of note was for India Emerging side in 2019. He played against HK in that tournament - 0/44 and didn't bat

Overall he has 8 List A games with 8 wickets at 40 and a batting average 8 with a HS of 16 in 3 innings - this is already his career best innings.

I suppose Badoni might have been more an unknown pre IPL? But Hrithik has definitely come out of nowhere. Arjun Tendulkar has more pedigree.

He gets out as I type this - finally CSK hold a catch. MI suck.

Unadkat has always had more skills than he's been able to deliver on. Can bowl high 130s/low 140s, good array of cutters, used to be able to swing it, left arm. Hid domestix performances have always been solid, and even in T20s he still has a career economy of exactly 7.99 despite being mostly used as a powerplay and death bowler, with a SR of 17 as well.

But unfortunately he has a knack for getting smoked by top tier players and hasn't really delivered too much in high pressure situations. Isn't bowling as quick as he used to anymore, on the wrong side of 30, seems to always get overpaid in IPL auctions.

Even his India numbers (overall) in white ball cricket are much better than I remember them. Did take half his ODI wickets in a single game vs Zimbabwe, and the other half vs Zimbabwe too lol. Wicketless in two matches against other opposition.
