“a young person with exceptional qualities or abilities”
Doesn’t this apply to many cricketers?

It would apply to any young cricketer who makes it to their national side.

I can't that's not how we roll...lol lol Anyway:
Prodigy: a person, especially a young one, endowed with exceptional qualities or abilities. Young Sachin did nothing extraordinary imho.

Tons in Australia, Eng and SA in first tries as a teen are exceptional. Especially in Perth and against Donald.

No that makes the term meaningless.
Mohd Amir was a prodigy IMO. Shahid Nazir was not.

If a teenager was able to make it to the national team of the country, they would be a prodigy by the country's standards wouldn't they?

No. Being selected as a teen is not that uncommon. If you aren't familiar with the term, it's ok.
