Rowlin Borges had an excellent individual season in an injury-ridden Mumbai City FC team. The midfield lynchpin made 43 interceptions and 103 successful tackles and to top it all off, he also scored 2 goals and assisted 2 more for his teammates.

Anirudh Thapa proved to be the perfect No.6 as he made a league-high 48 interceptions and 52 successful tackles. The 22-year old midfielder also provided 6 assists and scored a solitary goal for Chennaiyin FC.

Meanwhile, Brandon Fernandes made the No.10 position his own, registering a tally of 6 assists and 2 goals in 16 matches. With Sahal Abdul Samad out of favour at Kerala Blasters, Fernandes had no real competition to stop him from getting into this team.

While FC Goa are known for their goals, Lenny Rodrigues silently did the dirty work for the Gaurs as he made 46 interceptions and 82 tackles while also chipping in with a couple of goals as well.
