IPL 2018: Power-hitters for each team who can be the impact players

#7 Chris Lynn (Kolkata Knight Riders)

Chris Lynn

Chris Lynn, the Australian batsman is one of the hardest hitters of the ball in the world at present. Lynn who represented Kolkata Knight Riders in the previous season was released by the franchise ahead of the auction reckoning his injury concerns.

The Kolkata franchise had played a big gamble not retaining him, but the franchise was successful to buy him back after shelling out a whopping Rs. 9.6 crore in the auction. No wonder Lynn was definitely the most sought-after players in the auction following his heroics in the IPL last year.

In the 2017 season, Lynn scored 295 runs in 7 matches at an average of 49.16 and a thunderous strike rate of 180.98. He missed some of the matches due to his shoulder injury.

The Kolkata Knight Riders who have invested most of their money in the big man must be hoping that he steps on the gas from the first match itself.
