Mohammad Nabi is arguably the most underrated cricketer among the Afghanistan players plying their trade in the Indian Premier League. The traditional off-spinner has been used sparingly by Sunrisers Hyderabad, thanks to the presence of his illustrious colleague and compatriot Rashid Khan.

In his three years with the SRH, Nabi has played only nine matches [three in 2017, two in 2018 and four in IPL-12] and claimed 10 wickets. But whenever Nabi has played, he has made an impact. His 4-11 against RCB in his first IPL-12 match has been one of his top performances.
