#4 Aaron Finch

The limited-overs skipper for Australia, Aaron Finch, had a forgettable season in 2018 for Kings XI Punjab where he averaged just above 16. But Finch's current form turns the tide strongly in his favor; he was Australia's second highest run-getter in the World Cup.

Finch averages 26.31 in 75 IPL games and has a strike rate of 130.69. He has 13 fifties to his name with a highest score of 88*.

Teams looking for destructive openers will definitely have Finch on their list - especially the likes of Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings.

Fizz, as Mustafizur Rahman is popularly known among fans, started off his IPL career in style in the 2016 edition for Sunrisers Hyderabad. His career post IPL 2016 saw a minor blip, following which he has grown into a more mature and reliable bowler for Bangladesh.

Mustafizur had a decent outing in the recently concluded World Cup, being particularly accurate at the death.

He has 24 wickets from 24 games in the IPL, at an impressive economy of 7.51. His best figures of 3/16 came for Sunrisers Hyderabad during their victorious campaign in 2016.

Kolkata Knight Riders, Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kings XI Punjab will be looking to have someone like Fizz in their side for the upcoming season.
