Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) on Sunday handed an Indian Premier League (IPL) debut to India's U-19 World Cup star Ravi Bishnoi. KXIP take on Delhi Capitals (DC) in the second match of IPL 2020 in Dubai, UAE.
Bishnoi is a right-arm leg spinner. And the 20-year-old will be an exciting watch when some of the world's biggest stars meet in the IPL 2020. He topped the wicket-taking chart by claiming 17 in six matches with a miserly average of 10.64.
However, Chris Gayle and India's Test vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane did not make it to the playing XI of KXIP and DC respectively.
