IPL 2016: 5 players who could pose a threat to RCB in the final

#4 Yuvraj Singh

Yuvraj Singh in action against Gujarat Lions

The 34-year-old left-handed batsman from Punjab is one of the key members of the Sunrisers Hyderabad team. He missed the first half of this year’s tournament with an ankle injury but since his return has made some valuable contribution to the team.

The presence of Yuvraj in the middle-order certainly give the openers some assurance to play freely. He has scored 198 runs in 9 IPL matches this season with an average of 24.75 and with a strike-rate of 126.92.

The ex-RCB player also has a good record against his former team. In 11 matches against RCB, he has scored 212 runs at an average of 23.55 and with a massive strike-rate of 150.35 along with a sublime half-century.

He is also an extremely valuable asset in the field. His run out of Colin Munro against the Kolkata Knight Riders in the first eliminator was a turning point of the match.
