If you at the last few years of the IPL, Sandeep Sharma has been one of the most consistent death bowlers. His ability to nail his yorkers makes him an invaluable asset to any T20 side. Add to that the fact that he can swing the new ball and pick up early wickets as well, he is a must-have bowler for any T20 side.

While it wasn't surprising that he wasn't retained by Kings XI, he is one player that they should seriously consider using the RTM card on. The value of a good death bowler should never be underestimated.

Although they have a galaxy of stars to choose from, most of them are batsmen. Having a bowler who is consistently among the wickets and has proven himself to be a star performer for the side is a no-brainer. He has been really unlucky to not have played more T20Is for India but he is a certain must-have as far as the Kings XI are concerned.
