The lanky speedster Ankit Rajpoot was quite impressive for the Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in the limited opportunities he got in the tournament.

The speedster in the right areas and troubled quality batsmen. Against the Sunrisers in a group game, Rajpoot bagged the best figures in the tournament. He became the first in 2018 to bag a five-wicket haul.

Rajpoot dismissed the likes of Kane Williamson and Shikhar Dhawan finishing with figures of two for 14. He was part of Punjab playing XI on eight occasions bagging 11 wickets at an exceptional average of 20.

However, his economy rate was slightly on the higher side conceding runs at 8.52 in IPL 2018.
