IPL 2018: How Dinesh Karthik's team may lineup in the tournament

#11 Mitchell Starc

Mitchell Starc will spearhead the KKR bowling attack

Last but not the least, is the tall 28 year old Australian pace sensation, Mitchell Starc. The Australian was one of the pick buys for the KKR this season and is rated as one of the deadly fast bowlers in the world. He can trouble the batsmen with lethal bounce as well as variations in pace.The tall young left-arm speed-star will look to utilize the conditions of the Eden gardens to provide the team some initial quick wickets and disciplined bowling at the death overs.

He has been impressive with the ball in the recently concluded Ashes and the current Australian tour to South Africa. Already he has proved his worth in Test cricket as well as in T20s with Royal Challengers Bangalore, he can turn out to be the knight in shining armor for the Kolkata based franchise this year.
