Krunal Pandya

Krunal Pandya, the elder of the Pandya brothers, was bought by Mumbai Indians for Rs. 2 Crores in the 2016 IPL Auctions and won many hearts with his all-round performances. That season, his standout was a game-changing innings of 86 runs of 37 balls against a strong Delhi Daredevils bowling line-up.

He was one of the main reasons why Mumbai Indians won last year's IPL as his match-winning innings of 47 runs helped Mumbai score a respectable total of 129 runs for 8 wickets when at one stage it looked like Mumbai would not even cross 100 runs, helping them win the finals by 1 run.

Despite a poor all-round performance for Baroda in the recently concluded Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 tournament, the Mumbai Indians management did not even think twice and used their RTM on Krunal, even after RCB had almost bought him for a whopping amount of Rs. 8.8 Crores.
