#1 Manjeet Chillar
Having inspired Bengaluru Bulls to the finals in the second season and semifinals in the first season, the 29-year-old made a move to Puneri Paltan this season. The all-rounder made a deep impact last season by dealing both raids and tackling opponents.
From being the most expensive player in season 2 to getting his team to finals and getting a total of 51 defending points in season 1, the Indian is definitely the most sought all-rounder of the tournament.
The season also presents a challenge for him to rejuvenate Puneri Paltan who stood at the bottom of the charts last season. He is the most expensive player this season as well.
It would be watchable for what miracles he does to the team alongside his former team-mate Ajay Thakur and the strategies he evolves to revamp the team as a captain.
Definitely, a new team and a new challenge!
