#4 Kieron Pollard
Match-winners are those players who can single-handedly turn the match around in favour of their team and ensure victory. Kieron Pollard falls in the aforementioned category. With the bat, he can destroy any bowling attack on his day, with the ball he can break crucial partnerships and on the field, he is deceptively quick despite his burly physique.
It has been hard to fathom why the Mumbai Indians are reluctant of sending him up the order as once he settles in and gets in the groove, all the balls will just disappear into the crowd. Nevertheless, he has enjoyed his most productive season in the IPL this year, having scored three fifties.
In the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore earlier in the season, he scored a 48-ball 70, shredding the bowling attack. If he can replicate that performance in the final, Pune will be in a spot of bother.
