#3 KL Rahul
A gifted opening batsman for Karnataka and in the Indian Premier League, KL Rahul has emerged as one of the best Indian batters in the recent past and with 659 runs from 14 matches for KXIP in IPL 2018, Rahul will hold the aces for the Punjab-based franchise yet again.

Having failed to cement his place in the SRH setup, Rahul was snapped up by RCB in 2016 where he scored 397 runs in 14 matches, but an injury ruled him out of IPL 2017 until impressive shows with the national setup earned the opener a massive ₹11 cr contract with KXIP.
Opening the batting with West Indian marauder Chris Gayle, Rahul overshadowed the big Jamaican with some power-packed batting performances as he scored at a strike rate of 158.41 and finished the season with six fifties to his name.
Rahul started the season with a 16-ball 51 against Delhi and maintained his top form all through the contest, with his 70-ball 95* against the Rajasthan Royals proving to be the best of KL Rahul in the season.
