Uncapped England all-rounder George Garton was roped in as a replacement by the Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2021 Phase 2 as many of their players had withdrawn from the competition. The left-arm pacer has taken 29 wickets from 24 T20 innings at an impressive economy of 6.32. Hailing from Sussex, Garton hogged into the limelight after picking a wicket off his very first delivery in first-class cricket.
