5 Players who could replace Chris Lynn if he is unavailable

#2 Shaun Marsh

Australia v India - Game 3 — Marsh is one of the consistent performers in IPL

Shaun Marsh was a revelation when he first appeared in the IPL in 2008.

In his debut season, he scored 616 runs in 11 matches at a mind-blowing average of 68.44. His overall average of about 40 only shows that he has always been consistent in IPL.

He has scored 2477 runs in 71 IPL matches at a strike rate of 132.74 which includes one hundred and 20 fifties.

He was not properly utilised by Kings XI Punjab in the last few seasons of IPL due to Maxwell's inclusion in the squad.

He is a good stroke player who has been treated unfairly despite his good performances when given opportunity.

He can be used as a No.3 batsman where consistency is required for the KKR side and bring stability to the batting lineup.

About the author

Cricket was always like a religion for me since my childhood. It first caught my attention in the Kolkata test vs Australia and when South Africa chased down 434 against Australia, my fascination for the game has reached new heights.
My current drug is league cricket especially IPL and CPL. I loved when these formats proved every critics wrong.
I also love to analyse the game from data point of view and I would like to thank Sportskeeda for giving me this opportunity for expressing views on the game an its future.
