#4 David Willey - Chennai Super Kings

Lancashire Lightning vs Yorkshire Vikings - NatWest T20 Blast
David Willey

The Chennai Super Kings were dealt a super blow when Kedar Jadhav clutched his hamstring and walked out of the park in the season opener against the Mumbai Indians. He heroically scored a boundary in the last over, but was ruled out for the entire season, replaced by England's David Willey.

The 28-year-old all-rounder has been an asset for the England team, with his ability to bowl pace and use the long handle to great effect. He can also open the innings.

He's got two T20 centuries and close to 150 wickets off his left-arm pace.
