IPL 2020: One player from each team who can win the Emerging Player Award
The most promising talent of the season is named the Emerging Player of the Season at the end of the tournament every year.
5. Rahul Chahar (Mumbai Indians)
Leg-spin has become a trend across the globe in white-ball cricket. We see more and more wrist(leg)-spinners coming to the fore. Their importance has grown as even though they tend to go for a few runs they also pick up wickets. The trend has picked up in Indian too.
India’s white-ball spin attack is largely dominated by the two wrist-spinners, Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav. Apart from the two, there are multiple ones coming through the ranks in domestic cricket. One among them is Rahul Chahar.
Mumbai Indians have a bare spin bowling attack this upcoming season, with youngster Rahul Chahar who made his India debut recently leading the attack. There is an all-round spin bowling option in Krunal Pandya but he could go for runs especially at the death overs. Mumbai Indians will definitely need to bank on the youngster and ably support him.
The fast bowling attack of Mumbai Indians is probably the best in IPL 2020, they would need the spinners to hold one end up and deliver. Chahar and Krunal would be who Rohit Sharma would go to. The leg-spinner has the tricks in his armoury and considers Shane Warne as his idol and goes to Imran Tahir for advice which is a healthy and promising sign. With him going to lead the spin bowling attack, this youngster could well become the Emerging Player of the tournament if he does well.
