Agarwal emerged as the cornerstone of India’s Test team in the past year. However, he has to deliver in the upcoming tournament in order to become a regular member of India’s white-ball team. Usually, Agarwal likes to open the innings. However, with the presence of skipper KL Rahul and Chris Gayle, the star batsman might have to deliver in the middle order.

Speaking of KXIP, the team has one of the strongest batting line-ups, and they’ll like to clinch their maiden IPL title. KL Rahul will have the onus to the lead the team and he’s also expected to do well in his maiden leadership assignment in IPL.
