#1 James Neesham

James Neesham hasn't been a part of the most popular league in the world since 2014, which is quite astonishing considering the leverage that he brings to any team. The Kiwi all-rounder is in the form of his life and played a vital role in New Zealand's journey to the World Cup final.

The 29-year-old has over 1500 runs and 106 wickets in the shortest format of the game. Neesham has a reputation of being a devastating middle-order batsman and a handy seam-bowler, who on a given day can win matches in either department.

Kings XI Punjab gained Neesham's services at a bargain price of INR 50 lakh, which was his base price. Considering the form he is in, IPL 2020 might be the season where Neesham displays the full impact of his presence to a T20 side.
