He is very approachable. Kieron helps where he can quite a lot&quot;.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pollard has developed a reputation as a power hitter and his explosive innings have helped him to transform matches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He was a major factor in Mumbai reaching the play-offs in the 2014 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) and in winning the IPL last year. He is currently playing for Mumbai in the ongoing IPL.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;He was a big part of our season when we won it (the Ram Slam T20 Challenge) two seasons ago,&quot; recalled Vilas.&quot;Last season we missed him (for the last part of the campaign) through injury, which hampered us a bit.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Agency<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
