#2 Rashid Khan 1/13 v Mumbai Indians

Rashid Khan

Whenever anyone makes a list like this one, one name is going to be common and that is of the Afghan spinning sensation Rashid Khan. With all the technological advancements at any franchises' disposal and some of the best analysts working for them, Rashid Khan still remains a mystery. No batsman has managed to read him and even the dangerous MI batting lineup chose not to show their destructive side against this youngster.

Khan's spell against Mumbai Indians might lead you into believing that IPL is a Test tournament as he conceded just 13 runs in 4 overs, something extremely rare in T20 cricket. The 19-year-old conceded just 13 runs in that spell and took the wicket of Ben Cutting. His economy rate was just over 3 runs per over.
