Hits
Yuzvendra Chahal (Royal Challengers Bangalore)
Royal Challengers Bangalore has had one of its best IPL seasons in years and Yuzvendra Chahal is one of the main reasons for its success. Chahal’s contribution is often ignored by Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers’ batting madness. But this year he made everyone stand up and applaud his skills. The leg thrower has won 13 in nine games with a 7.65 economy rating. Whenever Kohli needs to break the partnership, he calls his main spinner and gets one most of the time.

Rashid Khan (Hyderabad Sunrises)
Sunrisers Hyderabad spinner Rashid Khan is nothing short of an introduction. The leg spinner has left everyone guessing since he made his IPL debut. Not only does he have the ability to take terrain, Rashid hardly goes for big races. He has managed 11 plots in nine games in IPL 2020 with an economy of 5.53. No opponent takes unnecessary risks against him and he seeks to play his overs carefully.
Axar Patel (capitals of Delhi)
The Delhi Capitals are playing a different brand of cricket this year. They’re sitting at the top of the pile right now and Axar Patel is a forgotten hero in this hit. Axar has barely been wrong in the 2020 IPL. Although he kept his economy rate below six, he managed to grab 8 wickets also in nine starts he had so far. Other than that, Axar beat his team the game against Chennai Super Kings with the bat. His streak of good performances has translated into the success of his team.
Failures
Sunil Narine (Knights Horsemen of Kolkata)
Sunil Narine has witnessed a steady decline in his form since he was questioned about his action in 2014/15. Narine also couldn’t light the IPL this year, not with a bat or a ball. He chose just five wickets in six games and conceded more than eight runs over. His bowling action came under the scanner after his game change spell against Kings XI Punjab. As a consequence, he was removed from the team. Later, the IPL bowling action committee removed his name from the warning list.
Piyush Chawla (Chennai Super Kings)
Veteran leg shooter Piyush Chawla switched base from Kolkata Knight Riders to CSK in the IPL. But it was difficult for him to reproduce the same success in his new home. Chawla fired six batters in seven games he featured. Plus, he’s losing nine races over. CSK are having their worst start in the IPL and Chawla’s poor form has not helped their cause.
Kuldeep Yadav (Knights Horsemen of Kolkata)
The young spinner has had a torrid year since IPL 2019.During a game against Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2019, Moeen Ali hit Kuldeep Yadav with teary eyes for 27 races in a row and the course has never looked the same. as. He achieved a solo wicket in four games of IPL 2020 and finally faced the XI player’s ax. Kuldeep turned out to be a disappointment for KKR this year.
