This one surprised us more than Hetmyer. Nicholas Pooran is a familiar name among cricket's big-hitters these days, and he has lived up to the expectations in gigantic fashion.

Pooran was the top-scorer in the recent Dubai T-10 League, and also the batsman with most sixes. Prior to this, he also made himself known through the various seasons of the CPL. He also smashed a 25-ball-53 in one of the recent T20I games versus India.

Nicholas Pooran will go for sale at a base price of 75Lakhs, but anyone who has been observing his level of big-hitting will know how valuable an addition he is to the squad, and hence it won't be any surprise if he gets sold at an amount several times his base price. In fact, the meagre base price of 75Lakhs surprises us much more.
