IPL 2018: 4 big money signings who are worth every penny of their price

#2 Krunal Pandya (Mumbai Indians)

Krunal Pandya has checked all three boxes for Mumbai Indians

When Kings XI Punjab owner Preity Zinta was raising her paddle for every other name that came at the auction, Mumbai Indians were sitting patiently. They were waiting for their old warhorse Krunal Pandya's name to pop up. It was very much expected that the elder of the two Pandya brothers will fetch a good amount as he checks all three boxes - batting, bowling and fielding.

MI had to spend INR 8.8 crores on him and he is repaying their faith with his performances. Krunal has been Rohit Sharma's go to bowler this season, as he has not only picked up 6 wickets but also kept things tight for the batters with his economical bowling, which is highlighted by his economy rate of just over 7 runs per over.
