de Grandhomme turned out for KKR in IPL 10
Tailor-made for the shortest format of the game, Colin de Grandhomme has all the qualities needed to make a living out of T20 cricket. An extremely clean striker of the ball, a handy bowler with both new and old ball, and blessed with a safe pair of hands, there is very little de Grandhomme cannot do on a cricket field.

The 31-year-old turned out for the Knight Riders last season, but did not have a great time and has subsequently been thrust into the auction pool for the upcoming edition of the T20 extravaganza.
In 134 T20s, de Grandhomme has an average of 25 and strike rate of 168, extremely healthy numbers indeed, and will not find it too hard to get a suitor in the auctions.

About the author
Arvind Sriram
After a brief and undistinguished stint as an electrical engineer, Arvind discovered his true calling was churning out hyperbolic prose about athletes he had never met.
A writer and editor with close to a decade’s experience, Arvind’s work has been published on Sky Sports, the BBC, the Guardian and other leading websites. He has attended multiple Grand Slams on the ground and provided coverage for Super Bowls and the NBA playoffs.
As a lifelong fan of Arsenal and the Indianapolis Colts, he has mastered the art of managing expectations and can convince anyone that finishing fourth is a moral victory.
When not armchair quarterbacking, Arvind spends his time playing blitz chess online, watching air crash documentaries and smashing controllers after his latest Weekend League defeat.
