#4 Nitish Rana
Ad
Another young man who is forcing people to sit up and take notice is Nitish Rana. Like Samson, Rana bats in the top order and has the ability to not only play his strokes, but also guard the wickets if need be.

Trending
He is a great buy for the Kolkata Knight Riders as the southpaw has already won two Man of the Match awards so far.
In five matches, Rana has scored 162 runs at an average of 40.50 and with a strike rate of 138.46.
However, his biggest challenge would be to maintain this consistency as teams will now put in specific plans to counter him in the remaining matches.
