K L RAHUL
This Karnataka batsman who dons the role of wicket keeper and the top order batsman for the national team, is quite consistent with his skills. Although he had a lot of ups and downs in his career as a National Cricket team player, he has always proved his worth when needed.
His IPL career has gone through a lot of changes as he shifted multiple teams. Started in 2013 as a part of Royal Challengers Bangalore but moved to Sunrisers Hyderabad later. He returned to RCB for the 2016 season but he was released from the team in 2018. Kings XI Punjab took this opportunity to buy him for a whopping 11 crore. And he showed that he is worth the investment by scoring a total 659 runs that season including 6 fifties. He also holds the record of fastest fifty in IPL which came off 14 balls.
In this year’s IPL also we can expect him to perform well and guide his team to the trophy win for the first time.
Rohit Sharma
On the other side we have the “Hitman” Rohit Sharma. His calibre and his contribution to the Indian Cricket requires no introduction. An absolute beast when it comes to crashing his opponents during the initial overs of the game, he is the best opener for India in recent times.
In the IPL he is associated with Mumbai Indians from 2011 and has shown in every season why he is called “the Hitman ”. Be it match winning knocks or clever captaincy that recovered his team from sure defeats, Rohit has done it all. He is the one who guided the Mumbai Indians team to win 5 IPL trophies.
