IPL 2017, KXIP vs SRH: 5 winning factors

#4 X-factor

Axar Patel is another who can contribute with both bat and ball

Both the teams have quite a lot of dynamic players. Many consider Maxwell as the X-factor for KXIP, however, Axar Patel is equally dangerous as he has the ability to do equal damage both with bat and ball.

He bats at a good strike rate and provides the much-needed runs lower down the order, and also has the knack of picking up wickets with his left-arm spin too.

For the Sunrisers Hyderabad, Warner, Bhuvneshwar and Rashid could be considered as the X-factors of the team. However, one can’t discount the enigmatic Yuvraj Singh, who can change the course of a match in the blink of an eye. With the bat, the southpaw is nothing less than a thunderstorm, and can also be a useful bowler who can provide the breakthrough.
