2. Parthiv Patel
Parthiv Patel largely lost his place to MS Dhoni in his playing career as a wicket-keeper batsman owing to some inconsistent performances. He made his Test debut at 17, becoming the youngest wicket-keeper during the Nottingham Test against England in 2002. The pocket-sized powerhouse continued to play as a first-choice wicket-keeper batsman for two year before his questionable performances coincided with the arrival of MS Dhoni at the international stage. This was about to be the turning point in his career. But he, did not give up, and always thought about improving his game not comparing himself with someone else.
