The quirky all-rounder from New Zealand is famous for far more than just his social media. After a great World Cup campaign in 2019, Neesham hasn't looked back and has been a real asset to the New Zealand international side.

A handy bowler who can control the flow of runs in the middle overs as well as don different roles with the bat in the middle order, Neesham did not have the payday that most people would have expected him to have.

While his stats in the T20 format are not worth boasting about either for the Black Caps or in the IPL, everyone is aware of the balance he can bring to the side he plays for. Despite him having a bowling economy of over 10 and a batting average of just 14 in the IPL, the fact that he has played just 4 matches needs to be considered. With time, he could have proven to be one of the main players of the team; and yes, of course, RCB could have gotten him for much cheaper than what they got Morris for.
