Top 5 Players who will be in the hunt for the Orange Cap

#2) Rishabh Pant

The batting of the Daredevils will be exciting to watch as they bank a lot on the young guns. Rishabh Pant is one such player who supersedes many in terms of the batting prowess he possesses, and for him age is just a number. The 19-year old is a sure-shot match winner for every Team he is associated with, be it Delhi Daredevils, Delhi in the domestic leagues or India U19.

He has scored 263 runs in the 14 innings at a strike rate of 136.20 in the T20 format. Despite his dull outing in Vijay Hazare Trophy with only one half-century and a knock of 99 against Tripura, he is a force to reckon with in the shortest format. He must utilise the upcoming Deodhar Trophy to get back into the terrific form similar to how it was during the Ranji season and earlier this year.

At an age when youngsters are still uncertain about life, Pant has sorted his career path. He can credit the Delhi Daredevils for the same. He made an impressive debut in the IPL last year and was involved in various instances of putting the Team in good positions including his maiden IPL half-century off 25 balls that made him the second youngest player to score an IPL fifty and a 40-ball 69 against Gujarat Lions in only his third match of the edition.
