3 teams to benefit from IPL being held in India

#2 Kolkata Knight Riders

KKR relies heavily on its spinners

Kolkata Knight Riders surprised a lot of people with their performance last year. Despite not having too many big names, especially in the batting department, they reached the playoffs. The reason behind their success last season was the strategy from the team's think tank. KKR rely heavily on Sunil Narine, Kuldeep Yadav, and Piyush Chawla. The spin trio has been sensational for the franchise over the years with their ability to spin a web on the opposition team's batsmen.

Also, KKR has a lot of youngsters in their side. The likes of Nitish Rana and Shubman Gill were exceptional for the team last year and they will be more comfortable playing in Indian conditions than they would have been playing in South Africa or U.A.E. Captain Dinesh Karthik and Robin Uthappa's years of experience playing in Indian conditions will also come in handy.

Now that the tournament is to be staged in India, KKR will fancy it's chances in IPL 2019.
