#3 Sanju Samson (RR)

The first century of IPL 12 came from none other than Sanju Samson. A mind-bowling 55-ball 102 against a good SRH attack showed his class and it is only going to get better as the season progresses. It is a treat to watch him bat effortlessly and when he gets going like he did against SRH, there’s no stopping him. Unfortunately, he had to end up on a losing side, courtesy David Warner’s brilliance.
