“Bada hokar Jadeja banega” is the phrase many are using for 20-year-old Prashant Veer, one of India’s most exciting young left-arm spinning all-rounders. Hailing from Amethi, Prashant Veer has rapidly emerged as a key asset for Uttar Pradesh cricket. His breakout came in the UP T20 League 2025, where he won the Emerging Player award after a remarkable season. Prashant scored 320 runs in 10 innings at a strike rate of 155.34 with an average of 64, while also picking up eight wickets in eight innings at an economy of just 6.69 and a strike rate of 19.
Prashant carried that form into the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2025, proving his effectiveness against stronger domestic opposition. A genuine all-rounder, he offers lower-order power hitting, wicket-taking left-arm spin, and sharp fielding. With performances like these, it is easy to see why Prashant Veer generated a significant interest in the IPL. Keep a close eye on this rising star.
