IPL: Most underrated XI from tournament history
These players rocked the tournament with their scintillating performances but did not get the recognition they deserved.
11. Sandeep Sharma
Sandeep Sharma is one of the most disciplined bowlers in the league. Back in 2013, he made his IPL debut for Punjab Kings (PBKS) in style against SRH in Mohali. In a losing cause, Sandeep won the hearts with his extraordinary bowling, taking 3/21 figures in his four overs.
Playing only four games in his debut season, he ended up with eight wickets at an economy of 7.43. In 2014, PBKS concluded their journey as runner-up, losing to KKR in the final, and Sandeep emerged as the most efficient bowler in the team with 18 wickets in 11 contests.
Sandeep hit the headlines in 2017 again with his remarkable bowling for PBKS. With 17 scalps in 13 contests at an economy of 8.29, he became the best bowler for the Punjab-based outlet in the season. Back in the 2017 season, he also became the first bowler to dismiss RCB’s trio of Chris Gayle, Virat Kohli, and AB de Villiers at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium.
