Krunal Pandya

Mumbai Indians in this season preserved their core team. They brought back their six major players and one of them was Krunal Pandya. The left-arm spinner and the left-handed batsman provides the perfect balance to their team and is a very good finisher.

In the match against Kings XI Punjab, facing a stiff chase, Krunal came at the very end and smashed 31 from 12 balls to take the team through. The win was very crucial for Mumbai to stay alive. Krunal then bowled the most important last over against KKR and managed to defend the total against Dinesh Karthik.
