8 - Shadab Khan (Pakistan)

At the mere age of nineteen, Shadab has taken everyone by storm. A prodigious leg spinner, Shadab burst on to the scene during the 2016/17 PSL season, and since, has not looked back.
An integral part of the Pakistan camp, Shadab prefers a more loopy trajectory as he tries to deceive batsmen, rather than to try and contain them. His variations and accuracy have led to him picking up several wickets at a remarkable economy. He boasts an economy of 4.76 in ODIs and 6.72 in T20s. Truly remarkable.
He's also handy with the bat, making him a valuable all-rounder and a true gem for Pakistan. His ODI average of 52 is a testament to the same. If he continues with such performances, there's no doubt he'll be one of the biggest stars in the future.
