Ishwar Pandey

ANALYSIS
Acting as the replacement for Ashish Nehra (illness), Pandey's first three overs were pristine, as he induced Quinton de Kock into a catch at long leg and used a full delivery to bowl through JP Duminy. After scattering 14 dot balls during that stretch, Pandey was crushed by the duo of Yuvraj Singh and Shreyas Iyer for 20 runs in his last over, settling on his final figures. With seven scalps, a 6.93 economy rate, and a 13.7 strike rate in his last five appearances, Pandey has warranted further selection as the playoffs approach.
