2019 IPL auction: One bowler each team could buy

Sunrisers Hyderabad - Axar Patel

Axar Patel

Sunrisers Hyderabad is one unit that has always emphasized on having a quality bowling attack. They have some of the best T20 pacers in the side and in the spin department, they have arguably the world's best white-ball spinner Rashid Khan in their ranks.

With the arrival of David Warner, Rashid's partner-in-crime in the spin department, Shakib-al-Hasan might have to miss out from the playing XI and in that case, Sunrisers might need a supporting cast for the Afghan international.

So, Sunrisers' priority in the auction will be is to find an experienced Indian spinner to partner Rashid and looking at the options available, there is no one better than Axar Patel for that role. Axar Patel is a proper utility player teams will look to have in their side in the format as he is a good bowler who can bowl four decent overs in every outing and apart from that, he can be a handy batsman coming down the order and a fantastic fielder.
