CricTracker Fan Poll: Best IPL side after the auction

4. Kings XI Punjab: 12%

Kings XI Punjab was the most active franchise in the auction trying to buy every possible player to go under the hammer. In the end, they managed to build a decent squad of 20 players as 12% voters went with them and hoped that they win the coveted trophy this time around. Punjab side boasts of some T20 superstars like Yuvraj Singh and Chris Gayle who can tear apart any opposition on their day. Even the likes of Aaron Finch, Glenn Maxwell and David Miller would be in the dressing room as the team combination is looking great for them.

KL Rahul and R Ashwin were the top two expensive picks of the franchise as they would be key to their fortunes during the tournament. They had retained only Axar Patel and cleverly used their RTM cards for David Miller, Marcus Stoinis and Mohit Sharma. Virender Sehwag is the mentor of the team and surely his inputs would be helpful for the team as KXIP chase their maiden IPL title.
