IPL 2019: Four debutants to look forward to 

#2 Shimron Hetmyer (Windies) by Royal Challengers Bangalore for ₹4.2 crore

Jamaica Tallawahs v Guyana Amazon Warriors - 2018 Hero Caribbean Premier League (CPL) Tournament

Windies' resurgence in international cricket has been due to the inclusion of power hitters and match winners like Shimron Hetmyer. He was extremely impressive in the CPL 2018, West Indies tour of India and Bangladesh in 2018-19 and also in the home series against England. He has proven that he has the X-factor to surprise the opposition and he is equally fearless.

RCB has traditionally liked to stack their top-order up with some power hitters. They have decided to go with yet another one this year. Hetmyer, however, has had his struggles against spin and short ball.

Teams these days have all the data available and will be looking to exploit his weaknesses. It will be a great learning curve for him to play alongside legends like Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers. If he can tackle his little weaknesses, he will be a handful for the RCB in IPL 2019.
