#7 Kings XI Punjab - Mujeeb Ur Rehman

Mujeeb ur Rehman's four crore price tag raised many eyebrows last year, however, he justified his value with his accuracy and wicket-taking ability. The mystery spinner, used mostly in the powerplays, did go for runs at times but was among the wickets more often than not. He troubled some of the most celebrated names in the league including Virat Kohli and proved difficult to hit.
With the experience of international cricket, Mujeeb is now a more mature bowler. His performances in the Asia Cup were particularly impressive when he bowled in tandem with Rashid Khan. Last season, a finger injury ruled out him for a significant period of time and his team's performance took a dip in the period.
The fate of Kings XI Punjab this season will depend largely on how oppositions tackle Mujeeb. It would not be a surprise if the Aghan spinner ends up as one of the leading wicket-takers of the season and one of the most difficult bowlers to face in the league.
