IPL 2019: Powerplay bowling options for each team

#2 Mumbai Indians

Bumrah is the key for Mumbai Indians

Jasprit Bumrah will most certainly take the new ball for Mumbai Indians. They also have a couple of good overseas seamers in Jason Behrendorff and Mitchell McClenaghan. Sran has also bowled a lot in the powerplay overs.

Rohit Sharma might also use Hardik Pandya in the first six overs. Markande and K Pandya will be used primarily in the middle overs.

Likely powerplay bowlers: Bumrah, Behrendorff/McClenaghan, Sran, and Hardik Pandya.

#1 Chennai Super Kings

Chahar picked up wickets in the powerplay overs last season

The defending Champions have a good mix of youth and experience in their bowling department. Mohit Sharma is expected to lead the bowling attack. Deepak Chahar did exceedingly well in the powerplay overs last season. They also have Shardul Thakur and Lungi Ngidi to bowl in the first six overs. Santner is also an option for Dhoni.

Likely powerplay bowlers: Chahar, Ngidi/Santner, Sharma, Thakur
