Over the past few years, Liam Livingstone has carved out a niche for himself in franchise cricket across the globe. With a staggering strike rate of 158.33 in T20I cricket, the Englishman has the power game to bludgeon bowling attacks.
Playing for Birmingham Phoenix, he struck 27 sixes in The Hundred last year, including 10 in one game. Add to that, the 28-year-old is a handy spin option, who can bowl both leg-breaks and offspin, which tempted a desperate Punjab Kings to splurge Rs 11.50 crore in acquiring him at the IPL auction.
