IPL 2019: Best foreign player from each team

Chennai Super Kings - Shane Watson

Shane Watson

The Chennai Super Kings have quite a few overseas superstars in their line-up with the likes of Dwayne Bravo, Shane Watson, Faf du Plessis, and Imran Tahir. However, it can be safely said that Watson is CSK's best overseas player in terms of experience and quality.

Watson, who is currently 37 years of age, has wide experience of playing the IPL for several years. He is a very devastating batsman and can chip in with more than useful overs as well. Last season, he was a juggernaut for the Chennai Super Kings and his all-round performances helped them win the title.

Watson's 117-match IPL career has seen 3177 runs at a strike rate of 141 and also has 92 wickets against his name. He scored a match-winning 117 in the final against the SRH when the CSK got their hands on the glittering trophy.

Mumbai Indians - Kieron Pollard

Mumbai Indians have a power-packed foreign roster and it is a difficult task to pick the best among that lot. However, looking at the history, it is certain that Kieron Pollard can be termed as Mumbai's best overseas player.

Although Pollard had a lackluster 2018 season, his heroics in the past for the Mumbai Indians have been too good to ignore him. Pollard has always stood and delivered whenever the Mumbai Indians have needed him. He will look to put his bad 2018 season behind and come out all guns blazing.

A monumental IPL record of 2476 runs at a strike rate of 146 and 56 wickets clearly prove that he has been Mumbai's man for all seasons.
