IPL 2016: 5 unsung heroes from the tournament so far

Shane Watson

Shane Watson has been the lone bright spot in the RCB bowling line-up

The recently retired Australian all-rounder Shane Watson is the lone horse in the RCB bowling line up as their bowling has faltered once again this season. However, his name hasn’t been mentioned in the same breath as someone like Virat Kohli or AB de Villiers.

His batting hasn’t lived up to the expectations so far but his bowling has been the only bright spot for the beleaguered RCB bowling line up as he is the only one who has stood up with the ball for them.

The veteran all-rounder has picked up 7 wickets and it was his penultimate over in the game against the Rising Pune Supergiants which propelled RCB to a victory. He picked up two wickets including the key wicket of Thisara Perera who was going berserk and only conceded 4 runs to tilt the match in RCB’s favour.
