IPL 2019: One Bowler from each team who could be the best choice to bowl  the Super Over

#5. Andrew Tye (Kings XI Punjab)

Andrew Tye - The experienced death bowler

The Kings XI Punjab have options like Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Sam Curran and their skipper Ravi Ashwin. But deploying the spinners in the Super Over has its own risk associated with it unless the bowler is of Sunil Narine's calibre. If the batsmen could connect a couple of blows against a spinner, it would become a costly experiment.

Ashwin had a bitter experience in the Champions League in 2010 at Port Elizabeth when he conceded 23 runs in the Super Over against Victoria Bushrangers.

For Kings XI, the safest choice would be the Australian bowler Andrew Tye. He is a specialist death bowler like a Dwayne Bravo who could be a force to reckon with in a Super Over with his accurate yorkers and slower deliveries.

Andrew Tye is the man for Kings XI Punjab if it comes to that.

#6. Tim Southee (RCB)

Time Southee had bowled one of the better Super Overs in a T20I

RCB has the likes of Mohammad Siraj and Yuzvendra Chahal to bowl the Super Over. However, the more wise option would be Tim Southee. He has a lot of experience bowling at the death.

Southee had bowled one of the best Super Overs ever bowled in a T20I at Christchurch against Australia in 2010. He gave away 6 runs only in that over to take New Zealand to victory in the tiebreaker.

Compared to Southee, Siraj, Chahal and even Umesh Yadav are expensive options. Southee would be the better bet to bowl the Super Over for RCB.
