IPL 2019: Ranking the all-rounders of the 8 IPL teams

#5 SunRisers Hyderabad

Yusuf Pathan

Shakib al Hasan, the experienced Bangladeshi batting all-rounder is a great player to have in the team. The 31-year-old also has bags of experience playing in the IPL and recently had a fantastic T20 series against West Indies. He picked up 8 wickets (including a 5-wicket haul) and also scored 103 runs overall in the 3 matches.

Although mainly seen as a lethal right-arm leg break bowler, Rashid Khan is also working on his batting. The 20-year-old Afghani player has one of the most impressive economy rates in the IPL and also picks up wickets regularly. He is currently playing for the Adelaide Strikers in the Big Bash League and has picked up 5 wickets in the 3 matches they have played so far.

Yusuf Pathan is currently playing for Baroda in the Ranji Trophy. He recently hit a fantastic century against Chhattisgarh. His right-arm off-break bowling also proves to be effective in tricky situations.

Vijay Shankar was traded with Delhi Daredevils (now Capitals) ahead of the 2019 season. He is currently playing for Tamil Nadu in the Ranji Trophy and is in great batting form having scored 5 half-centuries in his previous 7 innings.

Expected all-rounders to make the final playing XI:

1. Yusuf Pathan
2. Shakib Al Hasan
3. Vijay Shankar
4. Rashid Khan

Mohammad Nabi and Abhishek Sharma are the other all-rounders in the Sunrisers squad.
