This website had introduced the system of MVP long back, which has now become a standard term, the world over, to define what was earlier termed as an all-rounder.

Manish Pandey (Kungfu Panda) scored 168 runs in the 5 matches he got at an average of 84 and a strike rate of 142.37. In the process he hit one century and struck 4 sixes and 17 fours. His fielding too was amazing and he took 4 catches besides saving many runs. If there is a possibility, he should be included in the Indian T20 team immediately.

Here’s a list of Top 10 MVPs:

S. No. Player Team
1 ML Hayden Chennai Super Kings
2 MN van Wyk Kolkata Knight Riders
3 M Pandey Royal Challengers Bangalore
4 AB de Villiers Delhi Daredevils
5 JP Duminy Mumbai Indians
6 AC Gilchrist Deccan Chargers
7 SK Raina Chennai Super Kings
8 TM Dilshan Delhi Daredevils
9 DR Smith Deccan Chargers
10 HH Gibbs Deccan Chargers

Does a new batsman, David Warner who has never played first-class cricket deserve a full article on himself?

Yes, if he hits the second fastest 50 ever in his very first international T20 match playing for his country! For he spells the vision of what is to come in future. You’d have people like him who are superstrikers of the ball. He is the first man to play for Australia before playing first-class cricket since 1877. His call-up had been a surprise and it capped off an eventful couple of months in which he also earned an IPL contract with Delhi Daredevils and a deal to use a two-sided bat. The rewards had come after he began the summer in dynamic fashion with a New South Wales one-day record of 165, and followed it with 97 from 54 balls in the FR Cup, proving his success was not a one-off.

BTW he is a left handed batsman who opened for Australia in the first T20 against South Africa on 11-January 2009 and hit a 43 ball 89 to steer Australia to an easy victory.
