#5 Kings XI’s all-indian bowling attack
Kings XI is perhaps the only team in this year’s IPL whose bowling attack comprises entirely of Indian bowlers. Among the pacers, they have played Mohit, Sandeep, Ishant, Aaron and Natarajan, and the spinners have been Axar, Swapnil and Kariappa. Their strategy has been to include four foreign batsmen and rely on Indian bowlers to win them games.
Even in the reserves, they have more foreign batsmen than bowlers with Marsh, Guptill and Stoinis on the bench. Hence it becomes very important for them that their inexperienced Indian bowlers assess the conditions quickly and deliver the goods for their team.
Sandeep needs to pick early wickets with his big inswingers, Varun Aaron needs to harness his extreme pace in the right direction to reap results and Axar must do what he does best – keep the batsmen on a tight leash in the middle overs.
If their Indian bowling attack start delivering consistently, Kings XI might be a hard team to stop!
