MatchesThe Sr. Pandya brother is never out of the game be it with the ball in hand or with the bat. If not, he makes sure he contributes in the field. Krunal has grown in confidence and has a knack of performing under pressure as he did on the night of the final when Mumbai won their third title in 2017. He hit the winning runs in the 2020 season that gave MI their fifth title. While he is no longer with MI after being bought by LSG for INR 8.25 Crore, he will remain a valuable member for the new IPL entrant and will be required of playing the dual role of picking wickets with his left-arm spin and providing a boost to the middle order.
