Sunil Chhetri became the the first Indian to score a hat-trick in the ISL last season

Sunil Chhetri has been India’s best player for quite a few years now and has been voted the AIFF Player of the Year four times in 2007, 2011, 2013 and 2014. Chhetri made his debut in the Indian Super League in Season 2 last year and lighted up the tournament netting 7 goals in 11 matches for Mumbai City FC.

Chettri scored six times in three games as he helped Mumbai City to three consecutive victories last season. It included a hattrick against NorthEast United, making him the first Indian to score a hattrick in the ISL.

The 32-year-old was one of the most potent players for Mumbai City FC last season. However, because of a frosty relationship with coach Nicolas Anelka, Sunil had to play in different positions which affected his form. Nevertheless, he was one of the brightest sparks in last season’s ISL and fans will hope that he can replicate it this year as well.
