#4. Krunal Pandya' announces his arrival by sinking Delhi, 2016

Krunal Pandya

To trouble the Mumbai Indians' batting line-up which was dominated by right-handers, Delhi Daredevils picked two leg-spinners and one left-arm spinner in the playing XI in the league match in 2016 at Visakhapatnam.

To counter this move, Mumbai promoted Krunal Pandya, their only left-hander in the top-order at number three and then as they say the rest is history.

Krunal blasted 86 runs off just 36 balls and enabled Mumbai to reach to 206 in their 20 overs. Krunal came to bat in the seventh over and on the sixth ball he faced, launched Amit Mishra over long-on. Later he collared Imran Tahir to a six down the ground and S Nadeem over midwicket to complete his fifty.

Throughout his stay at the crease, Krunal kept on attacking the spinners and unfortunately for Delhi, every hit from Krunal's bat was timed to perfection. The inning included six monstrous sixes and seven fours.

In the 18th over Chris Morris castled Krunal but by that time, the damage was already been done as Mumbai had amassed a massive score on the board. The innings was a breakthrough moment for Krunal who exhibited his full range of strokes and displayed his batting talent.
