#3 Jonny Bairstow

Just the first season in the IPL and he has created tremendous impact at the top of the order. He along with David Warner has posted one of the most formidable partnerships with four 100+ opening stands. In 9 matches, he has amassed 445 runs with two fifties and a century. An average of 63.57 and a strike rate of 158.36 do full justice to the reputation he has gained for SRH. He also has 9 dismissals behind the stumps in as many matches.
