IPL 2018: Top 5 spells of week 1 (April 7-13) of IPL XI

#1 Mayank Markande 4/23 v Sunrisers Hyderabad

Mayank Markande appealing for an lbw in the match against CSK

As mentioned previously, Markande has been the find of the season so far. His performance in the first match against CSK was also worthy of a mention in this list, but his spell of 3/24 against Hyderabad was something special. Chasing a small target of 148, Hyderabad was once looking pretty stabilized, scoring runs at their will.

However, the 20-year-old from Bathinda brought the defending champions back into the game single-handedly. He dismissed the dangerous Shikhar Dhawan, Manish Pandey, and Shakib Al Hasan in quick succession to add spice to the game. Besides taking wickets, he kept a strict check on run-flow. Hands down, Mayank Markande has been the find of this year's IPL and provided he manages to keep his sublime form going, we can even see him donning the national side's blue colors one day.
