Rohit Sharma’s men have lost all of their three matches since the resumption of the competition. They are tied on points with the team they will take on in their next clash – Punjab. KL Rahul’s men registered a victory against Hyderabad in their last match.

KL Rahul

KL Rahul played yet another sublime knock in Punjab’s first match of the UAE leg against Rajasthan. He has scored 401 runs in this competition so far, maintaining an average of over 60. A lot has been said about his strike rate, but a strike rate of over 135, coupled with his average, is really impressive.

Rohit Sharma
