Top 5 players who are next in line to feature in a team's XI in IPL10
There are certain players who are warming the benches but could be seen in the action soon
#5 Darren Sammy
Another West Indian all-rounder who has been waiting in the wings but is quite capable of doing the damage with both bat and ball. He was with the Surisers Hyderabad squad previously and in 22 IPL matches, he has 11 wickets and 295 runs to his name. He was bought by Kings XI Punjab in this year’s player auction for INR 30 Lakh which was also his base price. It was a pretty economical deal to buy a player with such potentials at a very cheap cost. But the 33-year-old has witnessed all the action from the dug-out only.
The Punjab side is struggling in the bowling department as the Indian pacers have gone for plenty. Although Sammy is not express in pace yet his medium pace bowling could come in handy for them. He can also use the long handle and strike some lusty blows batting down the order. The KXIP side has struggled for form recently and it might mean that Sammy could earn his maiden cap for the franchise soon.
