IPL 2019: 10 Most Valuable Players of the Season

#7 KL Rahul (Kings XI Punjab)

KL Rahul

KL Rahul has been one of the best players for Kings XI Punjab ever since he joined the franchise last year. He has been their most consistent batsman and has scored a bulk of their runs.

This season was no exception for the swashbuckling opener. At most times, he seemed to be the only saving grace for Kings XI Punjab.

He ended the season as the second highest run scorer with 593 runs from 14 matches at an average of 53.90. Rahul scored a total of six half-centuries and one century.

While his fiery batting won KXIP a couple of matches, it wasn’t enough to get them into the playoffs as they finished the season in sixth place. KL Rahul is one of those players who has become too good for his own team and he definitely deserves to be part of a more consistent outfit.

Apart from his batting, he was also quite useful in the field and took a few spectacular catches. Rahul can also keep wickets when required making him a valuable asset to any team.
