As the ISL 2017 is underway, let us have a look at some of the gems the league has given the Indian national football team. Jerry Lalrinzuala (Full-back, Chennaiyin FC) Having put in fabulous performances for Chennaiyin FC last season, pundits heaped praise on the 19-year old. His pace and crossing ability was highly appreciated and he was named the Emerging Player of the Tournament for 2016 season. He has given national coach Stephen Constantine a good option for the left back role along with the mainstay Narayan Das. He made his international debut in a 2-0 win over Nepal.
