#3 Darshan Nalkande (Kings XI Punjab)
The right-arm fast bowler plays for Vidarbha in the Indian domestic set up. Darshan Nalkande had tasted success in this season's Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, scalping 16 wickets from just 6 matches. In the process, the 21-year-old also picked up a five-wicket hall against Uttar Pradesh, thereby helping his side bundle them for a mere total of 60.
Kings XI Punjab got hold of him ahead of the 2019 season and he might play a vital role for them as they lack Indian options. Currently, the Punjab-based franchise has only Mohammed Shami as a reliable Indian seam bowling option and they will bank upon Chris Jordan and Sheldon Cottrell to support him.
As IPL is a long affair, there will be days when KXIP might feel a dearth of foreign layers in other departments and could bank upon Nalkande to support their spearhead.
