10 most expensive players in IPL 2017 and their performances

#7 Rashid Khan

Young Rashid Khan’s acquisition by Sunrisers Hyderabad for a hefty amount of Rs 4 crores raised a lot of eyebrows. He had done well for his country but that was not exactly against quality players as Afghanistan hardly played top ranked sides. He had the ability, no doubt about that, but people had their apprehensions if Rashid could do that in the IPL.

Rashid took to the IPL like a fish to water. He excelled in his debut season picking 17 wickets in 14 games. Nobody expected Rashid to play all games for SRH this year but his accuracy and a well-disguised googly tempted Warner to have him in every game. His economy rate of 6.62 was the best amongst the SRH bowlers who had bowled more than 11 overs. His fielding skills at the boundary line also impressed everyone.
