The young Indian sensation, who captained the Indian U-19 cricket team in 2016 World Cup, was grabbed by Mumbai Indians for whopping ₹ 6.2 crores after defeating Chennai Super Kings and Royals Challengers Bangalore in a bidding war.

Ishan Kishan was a part of Gujarat Lions for the last couple of seasons, playing only 16 matches over the two years. The 19-year-old didn't excel, batting in the middle-order for GL. But once got to open the innings, he looked promising & scored his maiden IPL fifty.

With MI expected to give him the top spot in their batting line-up, Ishan can be a serious contender to lay hands on the orange cap.
