KL Rahul

The Bangalore boy took the IPL by storm in the first few matches and has looked in an amazing touch since. KL Rahul has batted in his purple form and has notched bulk of runs. Whenever Rahul has scored big, the pressure has never fallen on the fragile middle order of Punjab and he has also allowed Gayle to relax.

Rahul began in style with the fastest IPL fifty against Delhi Daredevils in the first match which just blew away the Double D’s. He then smacked a quick-fire 47 against RCB, 37 against Chennai Super Kings. Rahul really failed only once with his 18 versus SRH. He has crossed 20-runs mark seven out of eight times.
