1. Sai Sudarshan – GT
22-year-old Sai Sudarshan is an Indian left-handed batter who has been consistently a good performer in Tamilnadu domestic cricket. In IPL 2024 Sai Sudarshan will be the top-order batter for the Gujarat franchise. His 2022 TNPL (Tamilnadu Premier League) impressive innings made his way clear in the IPL 2022. Sudarshan gave a star performance in his International ODI debut, a match-winning 55 off 43 balls in the India vs South Africa in 2023. He hasn’t played any T20I and Test matches in International cricket made him eligible for the IPL 2024 Emerging Player of the Year.
2. Sameer Rizvi – CSK
20-year-old Sameer Rizvi is an uncapped Indian batter starting his IPL debut with Chennai Super Kings in 2024. Sameer Rijavi one of the remarkable players in the UP domestic cricket can be an IPL emerging Player of the Year in 2024. Rizvi is one of the top performers in the UPT20 where he scored 455 runs in 10 matches including two tons and a half-century. This caught the eye of the Chennai franchise who bought him for the whopping amount of INR 8.4 crore made him the most expensive uncapped player in IPL 2024.
3. Dhruv Jurel – RR
Rajasthan Royals wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Jurel is next on our list of possible IPL 2024 Emerging Player Award candidates.23-year-old Dhruv Jurel plays for Uttar Pradesh domestic cricket team.

In 2024 cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar wants a promotion for Dhruv Jurel in the top batting order as he starts his second stint with the RR in the upcoming Indian domestic league. With the right batting order, Dhruv Jurel could be the IPL Emerging Player of the Year in 2024.
