IPL 2019: One player from each team who can be the Emerging Player of the Season

#6 Sunrisers Hyderabad - Khaleel Ahmed

Khaleel played just one game in IPL 2018

Sunrisers Hyderabad has always ensured that they enter the tournament with a power-packed bowling line-up, especially in the fast bowling department. Thus, there are times when talented backup pacers do not get the opportunities they deserve. One such player last season was Khaleel Ahmed.

The left-arm quick impressed everyone in the domestic tournaments and was bought by Sunrisers for huge bucks. But unfortunately, with the likes of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Siddarth Kaul, Billy Stanlake and Sandeep Sharma in the side, Khaleel got only one game in the entire season.

However, his good domestic performance did not go unnoticed as he was selected in the Indian ODI team for the Asia Cup. Khaleel has done reasonably well for team India and is in contention for a place in the World Cup squad. The youngster is set to get more opportunities this time around and he will look to make the most of them.
