#1 Ravichandran Ashwin

Ravichandran Ashwin has been made the captain of Kings XI Punjab and will be playing against the Chennai Super Kings for the first time this year as he was with the Chennai side from 2010 till the franchise was banned in 2016.
The Chennai offie would be really disappointed with his removal from the Chennai side and in addition, his removal from the Indian limited overs setup has also provided him with an added incentive to prove his worth in this year's IPL.
Ashwin would have to perform in the IPL if he is to make it to the Indian team for the 2019 World Cup. He is also the captain of an IPL team for the first time in his career and therefore has a lot riding on his performance this year. He is definitely a player to watch out this year
