IPL 2018: Ranking the bowling of each team after 6 rounds

#3 Kolkata Knight Riders

The spin-trio of Sunil Narine, Piyush Chawla, and Kuldeep Yadav have led the KKR bowling with 8, 5 and 6 wickets respectively. Narine has been the most economical bowler of the three giving away less than 7 runs an over. Even when CSK chased down a target of 203, Narine gave away just 17 runs and also claimed a wicket in his quota of 4 overs.

Tom Curran, the replacement for Mitchell Starc, has taken 5 wickets in the 4 matches that he was part of but he has been leaking nearly 12 runs an over. The other fast bowling option is the U19 star Shivam Mavi. Even though he has just two wickets in 4 games, he has impressed everyone with his bowling.
