The Kings XI Punjab had the most entertaining season last year. They had a horrible start to their campaign and later on, they managed to make a stellar comeback. Well, don’t let the points table confuse you! After they included Chris Gayle, they were optimistic in their approach. Double-super overs, super overs, low scoring games, high scoring games, they were a part of them! 

The main reason they failed to make it to the playoffs was the poor performances of few players. Well, ultimately they were released, and there are few vacancies in their squad. The best name for KXIP management is Riley Meredith. KXIP needs a bowler who can bowl at 140 kmph consistently and Riley Meredith is a youngster who can do so! Adding on, if he performs decently this year, they can look forward to retaining him next year. 

Riley Meredith has taken over 43 wickets in 34 innings. An economy rate of 8.06 is priceless for a team that failed to pressurize their opposition during the death overs. Adding on, he is not the worst tailender, therefore, whenever a batting collapse happens, Riley Meredith can support a batsman. Therefore KXIP can include him in their squad.
