IPL 2016: 5 star players who can still feature as replacements

Mahmudullah Riyad

Mahmudullah possesses a solid technique and he is also capable of hitting the big shots

The talented Bangladesh all-rounder impressed one and all with his magnificent performances in the last year so. Barring that hara-kiri which he committed in the game against India in the ICC T20 World Cup 2016, he has been pretty consistent for Bangladesh. He has a solid technique and can also hit the big shots when required.

He can be a good option for the Kings XI Punjab franchise as he is no mug with the ball too. His off-spin can be lethal on the Indian tracks and Punjab will definitely benefit from his bowling services as they lack a spinner to bowl in tandem with Axar Patel.

Mahmudullah can also hold the Punjab middle-order together with his calm and controlled batting.
