Spin Bowlers
#10 Rashid Khan (Sunrisers Hyderabad)
IPL 2018: Matches - 16; Wkts - 21; Econ - 6.78; SR - 18.28; BBM - 3-19
This Afghan leg-spinner has been nothing short of exceptional for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 11th edition. After having done so well in the first year, there was a challenge as to how Rashid performs in his second season.
Without a doubt, Sunrisers Hyderabad have been the best bowling team in this year's IPL and Rashid Khan is a big part in that. The trajectory combined with leg-breaks and googlies have been tough for batsmen to read and that includes even Indians, who are known to pick the spinners well.
#11 Mujeeb ur Rahman (Kings XI Punjab)
IPL 2018: Matches - 11; Wkts - 14; Econ - 6.99; SR - 17.71; BBM - 3-27
Another mystery spinner from the land of Afghanistan, Mujeeb ur Rahman has made batsmen's life terrible in IPL 2018. Kings XI Punjab captain Ashwin has shown a lot of confidence in his young spinner by giving the most difficult overs.
He has been used as a run-saving as well as wicket-taking option and so far the 17-year old has kept his nerves and delivered for Punjab. The untimely injury to Mujeeb was a big setback for Punjab and as a result they failed to qualify for the playoffs despite the wonderful start to the tournament.
