Vivo IPL 2021: MS Dhoni knows how to bring the best out of his bowlers says K Gowtham
Krishnappa Gowtham

The Karnataka street cricket prodigy, Krishnappa Gowtham is an off-spinner and an explosive lower-order batter. He stepped into the IPL back in 2017 for Mumbai Indians (MI).

He got his first bid, which was surprisingly high for him, however did not get a good time with the star-packed franchise to perform. He was released by MI ahead of the IPL 2018 auction and eventually got a fresh contract with Rajasthan Royals.

He got his first break in the IPL game for RR and since then he has scalped 13 wickets in 24 games. He is also a brilliant batter who can easily score quick runs for his team at the end.

He hits with a strike rate of 169 and has scored over 150 runs.

If CSK releases him ahead of the IPL 2022 Auction, MI can bid for him and acquire his services for the next couple of years.
