IPL 2018: One player from each team who should be dropped from the starting XI

RR – Jos Buttler

Jos Buttler

Jos Buttler has scored 104 runs in 5 innings this season at an average of 26 but he disrupts the team's balance. With him starting, RR are not able to fit in an extra bowler and end up playing 2-3 wicketkeepers in the XI.

Sanju Samson or Heinrich Klaasen can be the wicketkeeper with Jofra Archer replacing Buttler in the starting XI. This will let Rahul Tripathi open the innings as well and the team will be more balanced.

Rajasthan have been conceding a lot of runs of late and need a bowler like Archer to deliver some good overs at the death. He can be a finisher as well for them and take the pressure off Ben Stokes.
