Karnataka's Krishnappa Gowtham is an all-rounder who can turn the game with his batting and bowling. The IPL fans witnessed a Gowtham special when he clinched the match for Rajasthan Royals with his heroic innings during IPL 2018.

The 2016-17 Ranji trophy became the game changer for him as he picked up 2 consecutive 5-wicket hauls against Delhi and Assam. Later on, he registered his all-time best figures of 7 for 108 and proved his worth. He also scored his maiden first-class century for Karnataka during the 2017-18 Ranji trophy while playing against Assam.

Considering his talent, he has the potential to become the next big thing in Indian cricket with his all-round exploits.
