#3 Mujeeb Ur Rahman

West Indies v Afghanistan - ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier Final
Mujeeb had a great IPL season with KXIP

Mujeeb Ur Rahman was an unknown identity on the world until he was picked by the Kings XI Punjab at the auction for Rs. 4 crore.

The 17-year-old Afghanistan spinner reposed the faith of the owners with his brilliant performances in IPL 11. The injured Rahman missed a last couple of games and went on to finish the tournament with 14 wickets from 11 games.

The highlight was when he dismissed the Indian skipper Virat Kohli with his googly and celebrated one of his best wickets.

Despite having no experience in the First-Class matches, he was included in the Test squad for his magical performance in IPL.

Mujeeb will trouble the Indian batsmen if there is a turn on the M. Chinnaswamy wicket.
