IPL 2016 Predicted XI Gujarat Lions

Pravin Tambe

The wily leggie will be looking to repay the faith shown by Gujarat Lions

The Indian Premier League has been the home of several success stories and at times, even fairytales, but none more special than Pravin Tambe. While unknown uncapped players were being sold for crores, it was certainly surprising to see Tambe cost just 20 lakhs.

While it is true that he is 44, the fact that he was only plucked from obscurity by Rajasthan Royals in 2013 means there is no question of him fading away immediately. Costing just 10 lakhs more than his base price, he was a steal for the Gujarat Lions and the legbreak bowler will be hoping to repay the faith shown by his side by continue his impressive form that has continued ever since he made his IPL debut at the age of 41.
