IPL 2020: Most significant foreign pick for each franchise

#6 Tom Curran (Rajasthan Royals)

Tom Curran went unsold in the first round of auctions

The elder of the Curran brothers was bagged by Rajasthan Royals at his base price of INR 1 crore. For someone possessing the kind of skills he has, Tom Curran is one of the most underrated T20 bowlers currently. He has the T20 weapons like steaming yorkers and slower balls up his sleeve, which he puts to good use. Not only good with the ball, but the English cricketer also contributes with his bat lower down the order and is a brilliant fielder as well.

Tom Curran had a forgettable outing in the IPL for Kolkata Knight Riders in 2018 where he picked wickets from 5 games at a very expensive economy of 11.6. Having said that, he has come miles from then on, playing T20 cricket all around the world. Partnering him and Jofra Archer can make a deadly combo whenever the opportunity comes as the Royals have a settled overseas group to feature in the XI.
