IPL-5 has reached halfway stage and all 9 teams seem to be jostling for top honors hoping to make the qualifiers. There have been some great batting performances from the likes of Sehwag, Pieterson, Dravid, Rahane, De Villiers, Flu plesis, Gambhir to name a few. In bowling the likes of Morkel, Steyn, Cooper, Malinga, Nadeem, Narine, Lee have bowled superbly. All rounders like Kallis and Pollard have been good both with bat and ball.
So which players, both national and international do you think have proven to be the Most Valuable Players of IPL-5? Players who have lived up to faith of their team owners and are worth their price or more. Cheers!:)

I think the credit for most valuable player should go to sewag. the all other names are big and they perform well but we saw how sewag plays in this IPL. he scored 5 consecutive half centuries with amazing strike rate. If such a player is in the front then even 250 can be chased with no time. A player like sewag will create more fear on opponents and the team should have a mental advantage before the start of the match.
If you go for foreign player then i will say gayle for same reason.
In bowlers the credit goes to morne morkel for his awesome performance.

The most valuable players in the batting front is Rahane,sehwag and gambhir as they have played respectfully for their teams and had been among the runs in this years IPL.They have lived upto the expectations of the team.The surprise package was rahane for the Rajasthan Royals as he is the orange cap holder.
And in the bowling front is Malinga as he had only played 6 games and took 15 wickets and is there in the 2nd spot in the leading wicket takers.He had achieved this with an average of 7.93 and an economy rate of 5.06.Then Morne Morkel is the MVP in bowling as he is the leading wicket taker in the IPL 2012.

Right now there are two top contenders. One is Rahane and the other is Sehwag. Both these are top contenders with great batting form. On the bowling front, I think Morkel has been head and shoulders above others and hence is one of the top contenders.
Cheers!
