IPL Emerging Player Award Winner 2008-18: Where are they now?

#8 Shreyas Iyer - 2015

Shreyas Iyer is the current skipper of Delhi Capitals

The hard-hitting Shreyas Iyer won the award in 2015 and played quite superbly throughout the tournament. Shreyas was one of the shining lights in what was a disappointingly dull season for the Delhi Capitals.

Iyer was the breakout star of the season as he played a number of impressive innings, including a knock of 70 odd runs against the league leaders Chennai Super Kings.

Shreyas Iyer replaced Gautam Gambhir as the captain of Delhi Capitals and will lead the team in 2019 as well.

#9 Mustafizur Rahman - 2016

Mustafizur Rahman is the only overseas player to win the Emerging player award

The only overseas player to win the award to date, Mustafizur Rahman stole the show in the 2016 edition of IPL as he helped Sunrisers Hyderabad claim the trophy as they defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore in the final.

Mustafizur Rahman was often named amongst the best bowlers in that season and the Bangladeshi international was at some points termed as unplayable, courtesy of his destructive yorkers.

The fast bowler from Bangladesh claimed 17 wickets in the tournament as SRH lifted the IPL trophy under the captaincy of David Warner.

He then was signed by the Mumbai Indians in 2018 but was released after a single season.

Rehman will not be playing in 2019 edition as he wasn't granted an NOC by the Bangladesh Cricket Board.
