Krunal Pandya Biography

While he is not as celebrated as his younger brother, Hardik, he is no less lethal. Krunal Pandya is still a sought-after name in the IPL circles. His maiden tryst with cricket came at Kiran More's academy. He often formed strong partnerships with brother Hardik on many an occasion.

In 2016, inspite of lacking first-class experience, the Mumbai Indians roped him in. The franchise then pursued him fiercely and he cost them two crores. Krunal Pandya made it worth their while, with a knock of 86 from 37 deliveries against Delhi Daredevils.

One season later, he came up with vital runs and wickets in a consistent manner. After a successful domestic season, particularly in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, the selectors were drawn to him.

IPL Career

Krunal Pandya made his IPL debut a year after his brother, Hardik. His eye-catching knock of 86 off 37 balls against Delhi earned him his 15 minutes of fame. He is also quite decent with the ball as well, just ask AB de Villiers.

While Hardik Pandya was already making a name for himself as an India international. Krunal elected to forge his own path and ended his maiden season in 2016 with 237 runs from 9 innings.

His bowling also evolved to adopt a tactical edge when the 2017 season arrived. He even went for under 7 an over in one of his 13 matches. At one point, against Rising Pune Supergiant, Mumbai were at rock bottom at 79/7 but Krunal singlehandedly rescued them. A score of 129 proved to be enough to secure victory and Man of the Match for Krunal Pandya.

Mumbai exercised their RTM card for INR 8.8 crores to retain him. Though the performances weren't mind-blowing, it was reliable. Krunal Pandya even possessed an economy of just over 7 with the ball, and a strike-rate of 145.22 with the bat.

IPL 2019 Expectations

While he does not have the swashbuckling ability of his younger brother, Krunal Pandya has his own flair to the game. He will surely be a key player for the Mumbai Indians.

Profile

Mahendra Singh Dhoni represents the old guard in Indian cricket. He made his debut in the national side back in 2004 for the ODI team. A year later, MS Dhoni made his maiden Test appearance and finally, in 2006, he kicked off his T20 career.

The 37-year old has been a stalwart in the Indian team and he has brought a lot of success to the team. Back in 2014, he announced his retirement from Test cricket, but has continued to play in limited overs.

IPL Career

MS Dhoni is one of the few players who has stuck around the IPL since its inception. He joined the Chennai Super Kings for a fee of $1.5 million, making him the most expensive player at the time.

Since then, he has remained with the side until IPL 2015. In 2016 and 2017, he joined Rising Pune Supergiant after CSK were banned. But now, he is back in the yellow jersey and once again performing well.

During his tenure with CSK, MS Dhoni has lead the team to three IPL championships, including back-to-back wins. In essence, they are the first team to ever defend their title.

Even with Rising Pune Supergiant, Dhoni's troops were not to be trifled with and they were a force to be reckoned with. In fact, in 2017, Pune even reached the final, losing to eventual champions, Mumbai.

Expectations for IPL 2019

With regard to IPL 2019, the Chennai Super Kings are on the hunt for their second back-to-back title win. If they do win, it will be their 4th ever and they will break the deadlock with the Mumbai Indians.

However, the competition will be tougher than ever. All the teams will be eager to put a stop to the CSK juggernaut. MS Dhoni is a capable leader and is no stranger to the winning mentality.

One thing that CSK is known for is, valuing experience over youth and they have opted for that same strategy in IPL 2019.
