ISL 2021-22: Top five Indian players in the league this season
The 2021-22 season of the Indian Super League is nearing its end with Kerala Blasters FC and Hyderabad FC squaring off for the title in the grand finale on March 20. With all the teams closely tied together quality-wise, this has been a topsy-turvy season for the ISL.
Furthermore, the new regulations to decrease the number of foreign players a club can field in their starting lineup to 3+1, have forced the hands of teams into recruiting stronger Indian contingents. More Indian players on display culminated in the ISL experiencing some of the finest performances from them in the tournament's history.
On that note, let's take a look at the five best Indian players from the 2021-22 season in the Indian Super League.

Overall, this has been a nightmare season for goalkeepers in the ISL. Most of them have been below the levels expected of them and that includes India's numero uno Gurpreet Singh Sandhu. However, Kerala Blasters FC shot-stopper Prabhsukhan Singh Gill has valiantly guarded the net throughout the season.
After first-choice KBFC keeper Albino Gomes suffered an injury early on in the season, Gill got his chance to shine. Since then, the 21-year-old has made the position his own and has come away with six clean sheets in 17 games.
