IPL 2019: 5 Players RR should get in the trade

#4 Chris Jordan: Stint at Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2018

Chris Jordan could bring a sense of stability to Royals' bowling lineup

Chris Jordan, a Barbados born English cricketer, has been a decent bowler in the limited overs schemes. Besides that, he is also an able lower-order batsman who can bat if the situation demands. Another prospective addition of Jordan is his outstanding fielding. You will never have a bad on the field with Jordan on board.

Hence, eyeing Chris Jordan in the IPL 2019 trade will be not a bad idea at all. Royals could recruit Chris as a prospective replacement to Ben Laughlin who had an ordinary IPL 2018.

Although Jordan has that problem of leaking runs at above 8.5 runs per over, his excellent bowling strike-rate puts all the claims down. He has an outstanding strike-rate of 16.50 with the best figures being 4 for 11 in his IPL career.

Besides, with RR lacking experience in death over bowling options (leaving aside Jofra Archer), Jordan stands a prominent place in Royals' bowling lineup.

Thus, Jordan happens to be one of those players whom Royals should trade for the IPL 2019. Chris Jordan was a part of SRH in IPL 2018.
