Rahul Tewatia is an old-fashioned leg-spinner who prefers to give the ball air instead of firing it through. He was one of the surprise packages of the 2018 Indian Premier League auctions. The base price of the 24- year old-leg-spinner was just Rs 10 Lakhs. But within minutes the price soar to a massive 2.5 Crores. His previous team Kings11 Punjab were after him but eventually, Delhi Daredevils bought him at 3 Crores.
At Delhi Daredevils, Rahul will be playing alongside the veteran leg-spinner of the IPL, Amit Mishra. Rahul would like to use Mishra’s invaluable experience to mature as a leg-spinner. He is decent with willow in hand too and can use long handle to good effect lower down the order. His batting ability was also one of the reasons behind his 3 Crore price.
