Devdutt Padikkal was one of the sensational and upcoming stars who performed brilliantly at the IPL 2020 edition in the UAE.


The talented batsman played 15 matches in the last IPL season and scored an impressive 473 runs at an average of 31.53 and strike rate of 124.80. He scored 5 fifties with a top score of 74.


Speaking exclusively on Star Sports’ Select Dugout Live Feed, West Indies legend Brian Lara lavishes praise on Devdutt Padikkal and wants him to get few man of the match titles, “He’s (Padikkal) such a great talent. Last year he got a couple of fifties, he batted well, he supported Virat Kohli very well. What I want to see in 2021 IPL is for him to go on and get a few man of the matches and get a couple of triple figures under his belt. Such a great little player! A few little things to iron out. I hope he did that in the break and comes back really storming hard for this IPL.”


Royal Challengers Bangalore go head to head against Kolkata Knight Riders in VIVO IPL 2021’s 10th match on April 18th at Chennai. Catch all the action LIVE and exclusive on the Star Sports Network & Disney+ Hotstar VIP from 2:00 PM onwards
