Pacers have come up with several variations to fox the batsmen and succeed in the T20 circuit

#2 Andrew Tye

picked by KXIP for a whooping 7.2 crores this year — Andrew Tye was picked by Kings XI Punjab for a whopping 7.2 crores this year

One of the greatest exponents of the knuckleball – which seems to be the order of the day – Andrew Tye would be crucial for the hopes of Kings XI Punjab to overturn their miserable IPL record this year.

Playing for the Gujarat Lions in 2017, Tye impressed one and all with figures of 5-17 against the Rising Pune Supergiant on his IPL debut but a dislocated shoulder saw him ruled out of the season. His fifer was part of the reason that he was picked by KXIP for a whopping Rs. 7.2 crores this year.

The Aussie comes in with a rich experience of the Big Bash League and would come in handy for his franchise in the slog overs.

I, a failed cricketer say: write picturesque, write insightful; otherwise don’t write. My writings are a source of self pleasure. Enjoy a fiercely fought test session much more than a slam bang T20. I write anything, as per whim- news piece, feature, opinion, editorial, preview, analysis etc. Hope to write a book one day!
