The all-time IPL all-rounders XI

9. Corey Anderson

We just got thinking where was a Kiwi in such an impressive list and the name of Corey Anderson announced itself. Anderson is a gritty all-rounder and someone whose presence adds vital strength to any T20 side, something that his Mumbai Indians valued with good measure in 2014.

He is a talented big hitting left hander who can bowl left-arm medium pace. At times, Anderson struggles with variations in his deliveries but he’s got the wicket taking ability with the short-pitched ball.

In the IPL, Anderson has played 15 games, from which he has snapped 5 wickets at an economy of 9. From his blazing willow, Corey has struck 379 runs with 3 fifties at an impressive strike rate of 136.

His highest score of 95 at Mumbai was replete with flair and firepower strokes on all sides of the wicket. At 25, Anderson has both age and temperament on his side to clock up good miles on his cricketing journey.
