#1 Krunal Pandya

Baroda all-rounder Krunal Pandya made a name for himself in the 2016 edition of the IPL. Krunal made a significant contribution in Mumbai's title run in 2017. He was the Man of the match in the final for his contribution of 45 odd runs. The left-arm spinner also bowled economically in that game.
The 26-year-old has shown his capability with both bat and ball. The all-rounder played decently in the domestic season. On most occasions, Baroda trusted him with the responsibility of batting in the top order and Pandya repaid their faith. In this year's edition of the IPL, the elder Pandya will be the premier spinner for Mumbai Indians.
He can use this as a platform to stamp his authority in Indian cricket. He will hope to make it to all the three formats starting from T20s against Ireland. Pandya can act as a crucial all-rounder in the Indian subcontinent in ODI cricket.
