Harbhajan Singh, Ashish Nehra, Zaheer Khan who seem to have completely lost their place in the playing eleven are hitting their old form and making their ominous form felt in the Ipl for a comeback in the side. Such a surprise and great feeling that even at this age they are competing to come back with such intent. Indeed age is just a number... Isn't it friends..

Not only, old war horses but also some young players like Negi, Sheyash Aiyar, Aparajit performing excellently, the most disastrous being two costliest players, yuvraj and Kartik.

Young players have in every Ipl rose to the limelight but the experienced and out of team members are not seen much in the fray of limelight, but this season has been the exception. And yes Yuvraj and Karthik have underperformed exceptionally!!!

There is a time for everything . Its not uncommon to see even the best players too had lean phases. None can be in the Form all along.

Honestly, I have seen some players in past who played well in IPL but failed to give performance at international level. So yes they are doing good right now. But at some stage they were not good when they were playing for India. Let's see if they get another chance or not.

As I said earlier, even the best of the players will have lean period. Some are able to come back to the form, but some will not.

True.. Getting good form in ipl doesn't mean they will able to do same in Indian team. But yes hope for the best. 

Almost all the great players were in low form at one time or other. Nobodycan stay in full form all along the career.

That goes for all. Even Sachin Tendulkar wasn't in the form completely consistently.

IPL is not a full international cricket with having good players four to five and there are some ordinary players in playing eleven too, but what is accounted for this time the performances of under 19 players as names mentioned above and regulars in India team are doing good but there is not chance for the old war horses as they have to perform out of ordinary to be selected. 

It's good for India as now the selectors Will have many options to choose players which are performing well.

One of the IPL 's objective is to bring out the new and emerging talents to light. In this process old idols those who are not in the form will not get an opportunity to play in IPL.

True.. But honestly, those new talents are not getting any chance. I have seen few really brilliant talents in old IPLs and even big cricketers were telling lot about them... But they never get chance. And right now they are no where.

 

Brilliancy is a relative term, not absolute. The brilliancy seen by the other cricketers may not be the required brilliancy standards by the IPL.

But what if those talents are not getting enough attention and just vanish away like no one noticed them.

Only one solution. Work hard and wait for your day.

Well, its really demoralize when they got neglected even they played well.

If someone have talent then they deserve good guidance to make it in Indian team. But it is not happening at all.

I do not think so, new talents are getting immense opportunities now, with advent of Akhsar Patel, Karna Sharma, KL Rahul inside Indian team shows how value of IPL is. 

Talent will never be overlooked. It may be overlooked for some time but not forever provided the player has talent.

In that case I can give you many names like that who performed really well in IPL in past, but they never got good guidance or chance. And now they are no where.

Big guns should encourage new players. And give them proper guidance on time before they discouraged.

Exactly Mohan. New talents are being given chance. Ultimately the talent stays. Old glory  will not be considered. IPL had the bitter experience of how some players were given chance only to see them as a big flop.
