IPL 2020: Predicting the MVP of each team in the tournament

7. RR – Jos Buttler

Jos Buttler has been a freak in limited-overs cricket in the past couple of years. It won’t be incorrect to say that after AB de Villiers, Buttler has been the new Mr 360 in international cricket.

The Englishman is having a terrific year with the bat in all forms of the game. He is averaging 48.75 and striking at 154.76 in T20Is this year while opening the innings. So Rajasthan Royals, who don’t that specialised openers in the squad, would be happy to see Buttler donning that role.

Buttler’s performance in the IPL so far has been decent, scoring 1386 runs at an average of 35.54 in 45 matches. Apart from batting, he also performs the wicket-keeper’s role, which provides the opportunity to earn some extra MVP points.
