This IPL season sees uncapped players, such as Priyansh Arya, Vignesh Puthur, and Digvesh Rathi, rising through local leagues to outperform international stars. Their performances underscore the critical role of state-level competitions in fostering talent, creating opportunities for players to display crucial mental toughness.

This year's Indian Premier League (IPL) is showcasing remarkable performances from uncapped players, overshadowing some established stars.
