Jason Roy
One of the biggest surprises of the IPL auctions this year was when English opener Jason Roy had gone unsold. He was expected to be one of the top attractions considering the red hot form he was in. The Gujarat franchise made a very wise move by roping in him in the second round of auctions.
Now, with Roy in the side, they have an ideal partner for McCullum to go all guns blazing in the top order. Roy has every probability to be picked ahead of Aaron Finch and Dwayne Smith. Finch has been out of form in the recent times and that comes as an added plus for Roy.
Roy has played 136 matches thus far in the shortest format of the game and hence the format is definitely not a new one for him. It suits his game of play. He has 3585 runs to his name at an average of 28.45 with a very healthy strike rate of 144.49. He has four T20 centuries in his career to go with 22 fifties.
