#10. Jaydev Unadkat

There was a lot of discussion regarding Rajasthan Royals’ move of buying Jaydev Unadkat for 11.5 crore rupees in the 2018 IPL auction. The Saurashtra bowler had dominated the 2017 season and was rewarded by being the most expensive Indian player in the 2018 auction. Playing under pressure, Unadkat picked up 11 wickets but leaked 9.65 runs per over.

Royal subsequently released Unadkat and bought the left-arm seamer back for 8.4 crores. He will be pace spearhead alongside Jofra Archer.

The medium-pace bowler from Mumbai has been a silent performer in the IPL over the years. In 80 IPL games, Kulkarni has captured 79 wickets with an economy rate around eight. IPL 2016 was his best season where he ended up grabbing 18 wickets from 14 matches. In 2018, he was inconsistent. Kulkarni was included in only eight matches where he ended up with four wickets. Lately, he has been plagued with injuries, but Royals do not have a better Indian pace bowler than him.
