#1 Nicholas Pooran (Kings XI Punjab)
Most people wouldn't have expected to see Nicholas Pooran's name on this list ahead of players like Curran or Hetmyer. But considering his recent form, his inclusion is more than justified.
Trending
Pooran has been simply devastating in all the T20 leagues he has been playing in, and has recently lit up the Bangladesh Premier League with his sixes. He was brilliant in the T10 league and his T20 record is staggering.
He can bat anywhere from No. 3 to No. 7 and added to that, he's a proper wicketkeeper which means that he can take that burden off KL Rahul. Though not noticed by many so far, Pporan can be a real asset.
