#2 Rishabh Pant, Delhi Daredevils

Rajasthan Royals v Delhi Daredevils - IPL T20 cricket
Ricky Ponting was one of the reasons for Pant's blistering performance in IPL 2018.

The elegant left-hander had his best season in the 11th edition of IPL. Delhi Daredevils decided to retain him considering the long-term prospects of having the lad in the team. Although he proved his worth in the present season itself.

With his mesmerizing stroke-play, he dismantled many bowling line-ups. In just 14 matches, Pant notched up 684 runs at a mind-boggling strike rate of 173.6 with 5 fifties and a hundred. The consistent performance was the key behind his monumental success in this season.

He led the list of most boundaries and sixes in a season (68 boundaries, 37 sixes) and had a season-high score of 128*.

Best Performance: With his unbeaten score 128* off 63 balls against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, he holds the record for the highest individual score by an Indian in IPL history.
