IPL 2020: 1 underrated all-rounder from each team who could win the MVP award

#6 Delhi Capitals - Marcus Stoinis

Marcus Stoinis will play for the Delhi Capitals in IPL 2020

Marcus Stoinis is part of an extremely strong Delhi Capitals (DC) side for IPL 2020, and he could fit perfectly into Shreyas Iyer's side. DC have a highly strong Indian contingent, and the only thing they lack is a quality pace-bowling all-rounder due to the departure of Chris Morris.

Stoinis could fix that exact problem for DC. The Australian was in sparkling form earlier this year in the Big Bash League, and his bowling style that relies on cutters will fetch him wickets in the UAE. He could turn out to be a very shrewd signing on DC's part, and he is in with a real shot to claim the MVP award.

#5 Sunrisers Hyderabad - Mohammad Nabi

Mohammad Nabi is in blistering form at the moment

It is a bit of a stretch to call Mohammad Nabi underrated at the moment, given his sparkling performances in the Caribbean Premier League. However, the all-rounder has never quite gotten his due at the Sunrisers Hyderabad, perhaps due to the presence of Shakib Al Hasan.

With the Bangladesh man out of the IPL 2020 picture, Nabi is set to play a key role for SRH alongside his national teammate Rashid Khan. The Afghanistan veteran is an excellent powerplay bowler, and can strike a few lusty blows as well. With SRH having a weak middle order (Kane Williamson might find himself on the bench), he could be given a promotion due to his experience and obvious skill.

Nabi could finally be recognised for his consistent performances with the MVP award in IPL 2020.

#4 Kolkata Knight Riders - Nitish Rana

Nitish Rana might have to contribute in both departments in IPL 2020

The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) decided to release veteran leg-spinner Piyush Chawla, and replaced him with mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy. The Tamil Nadu man has bowled only 3 overs in his IPL career so far, and KKR might not trust him enough to be a full-time spin option.

And that's where Nitish Rana might come into play, from an all-rounder perspective. He is guaranteed to play almost all games for KKR, and will slot in at either No. 3 or No. 4. The Delhi batsman has shown that he can contribute with the ball in the past, and has 3 IPL wickets to his name.

With only two spin options - Sunil Narine and Kuldeep Yadav - expected to be in the KKR playing XI, Rana could be given more than a few overs. He could seriously have a breakthrough season and contend for the IPL 2020 MVP award.
