#3 Miss: Chris Woakes

Chris Woakes might have picked up 8 wickets and is currently among the top five wicket-takers in this IPL but he has been very expensive. Before this game, he had an economy of 10.47 in 4 games. He was taken for a lot of runs in the death in the last couple of games.
However, the England all-rounder had the team management’s backing. In this game, Woakes bowled three spells. He started the game well as he gave just 5 runs in his first over. He came back and gave 8 runs in his second over before he was taken for runs at the death.
He conceded 3 fours in his 3rd over before Pant hit him for a couple of fours and a six in Woakes’ final over. Woakes ended with figures of 0/40 in his four overs.
