IPL 2018: 5 Players who can guide Mumbai Indians to the title

#3 Krunal Pandya

The elder Pandya brother got the highest bid for any uncapped Indian when he was bought back by Mumbai Indians using their RTM card at the IPL auction. The franchise seems to have a lot of faith in the all-rounder as he continues to deliver goods for his side with some match-winning all-round performances.

He has been the trump card for Rohit Sharma, who tends to use him at the crucial junctures of the games. The southpaw has blossomed under pressure and is one of the key core players. With the failure of Pollard in the lower middle-order, Krunal has taken the onus upon himself to play the role of a finisher for the side.

He has managed 181 runs to complement his 9 wickets in the ten matches played so far. For Mumbai to continue to do well, Krunal needs to continue his good run of play both with bat and ball.
