IPL 2017 Final, MI vs RPS: 5 players to watch out for

#3 Karn Sharma

Sharma has benched Harbhajan Singh with his impressive spells

With Harbhajan Singh in the squad, Karn Sharma had been Mumbai Indian’s second choice. However, midway through the event, MI swapped Bhajji with Karn and it has paid dividends from the word go.

With 13 wickets from 8 games, Sharma has been able to add to the wickets column in addition to slowing down the run rate. Mumbai Indians must be delighted with the fact that the leg-spinner has peaked right before the Finals.

With a breathtaking spell of bowling against the Kolkata Knight Riders in Qualifier 2, Sharma has garnered confidence and will want to replicate the same performance for Mumbai Indians to lift the Indian Premier League for the third time.
