Axar Patel

The slow left orthodox bowling all-rounder from Gujarat also got an entry into the Indian dressing room through the IPL door. He performed quite well for Kings XI Punjab showcasing mental toughness to handle pressure.

But at international level 45 wickets from 38 matches are not much home to write about. His batting technique also got exposed as he couldn't handle international level bowlers and looked like a fish out of the ocean while batting.
