SUMMARY

Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, 2016, which acted as a prelude to the IPL saw Eklavya Dwivedi's meteoric rise. The UP lad scored a whopping 258 runs in nine matches and that earned him INR one crore in the Indian Premier League auctions. Before representing Gujarat Lions in the season gone by, he had largely warmed bench at Chennai Super Kings and Pune Warriors India in the previous seasons.

The UP wicket-keeper is known for his big-hitting abilities and with the age on his side and the spot for a wicket-keeper in the ODI squad of the Indian team expected to be vacant in the near future, we might get to see him behind the wickets in the limited overs cricket.
