The young Karnataka all-rounder was among the hottest picks in the Indian Premier League this season and has been impressive for the Rajasthan Royals.

However, his all-round skill has been a big advantage for Karnataka with the red ball as he renders a perfect balance to the squad. He has the ability to hold one end up and exert pressure and if the conditions favour him can also pick up wickets.

Also, he is a reliable batsman with a penchant for big hitting and could have been tried instead of the tried and trusted Ravichandran Ashwin.
