IPL 2019: Best all-rounder of each team

Rajasthan Royals- Ben Stokes or Krishnappa Gowtham

Krishnappa Gowtham

The Rajasthan Royals appear the weakest on paper and have been dealt a huge blow due to the injury of Steve Smith which casts serious doubt about his participation this season. They however have Ben Stokes, the most expensive buy in 2017 and 2018 and Jos Buttler, who saved them last season to count on.

Stokes disappointed last season and didn't produce much note-worthy performances with the bat and wasn't at his best with the ball. He is still one of the best all-rounders in the world and will be key to the side's fortunes this season. He will look to provide stability to their batting order.

Krishnappa Gowtham turned a few heads last season after he fetched a huge amount in the auction. Though he took some time to settle down, he later performed with the ball bowling off-spin and also showed his potential with the bat. He's a proper middle-order batsman with all the strokes though he was deployed as a lower order batsman. He scored 33 off 11 balls against MI to finish off the game all on his own and he must be seen more often wielding the bat.
