TBF Williamson is one of the few cricketers in the game today who seems to have that Tendulkar-esque ability to identify an issue with his batting and then go and eliminate it. It'll be interesting to see if he continues to gun it in the IPL. He's always been a bit of an anchor in IPL, if he can diversify his game even more than it's pretty exciting.

It was just once in a blue moon innings from Williamson against an average bowling attack so I wont get carried away by it

We badly need a solid lower order hitter to support Hardik. Will be happy if even one of the above can scale up.

He has scored as many runs as Virat Kohli, at about the same average and the same strike rate. So far, one of the very best batsmen in this IPL

Rashid mystery has been solved now. Even Mujeeb looks nothing special against good batsmen. They are at the level of Dhananjaya at best.

Starting to look like Rashid was so effective in the BBL just because Australians are useless against any semi-decent spin

The IPL is pretty unforgiving to players who can't evolve, adapt their game, as their weaknesses are being discovered. This applies to both batsmen and bowlers.
It's too early to say that Rashid has been 'found out' and is a spent force now. He is probably good enough to start adopting more variations than the handful of stock tricks that he has used so for.

I genuinely believe Rashid Khan suffers from that depth-of-skill issue that I talked about earlier - all of his success so far seem to have stemmed by how freakish his bowling is. The pace and revs and the dipping googly. Once batsmen adjust to that, his mental game begins to get tested. We'll be finding out in the near future -especially with Afghanistan playing Tests- how far that aspect of his bowling had come along.

Kohli has hardly set this IPL on fire tbh.

He apparently had a stiff back, chill.
Meanwhile, how bad were the 3 home top-order bats for the Sunrisers, Bhui, Pandey & Hooda. 1 off 14 balls between them. They need to hang their heads in shame.

I thought he'd lost his mojo since his shoulder injury.

You may have something there, Ish Sodhi took 6-11 in one of the few BBL games he played.
That said, Rashid did have a brilliant IPL last year, going just over 6.5 an over.
