3. Sam Curran
The English Allrounder has been rising star for the Chennai Super Kings franchise ever since the first game that happened against Mumbai Indians. Other than his sublime bowling performance we’ve also seen glimpses of his firm striking of the ball.
In the last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, we saw Sam Curran open the batting alongside Faf Du Plessis where he scored a quickfire 31 off 21 deliveries. It is expected that Curran will continue to open later in the tournament as well since he was responsible for giving Chennai Super Kings the required start in the powerplay, what was missing ever since the IPL season started.
