Kolkata Knight Riders has always put a conscious effort into assembling a strong bowling-attack. Last year the franchise suffered a major blow losing Mitchell Starc to injury even before the tournament began. However, young fast bowlers like Prasidh Krishna and Shivam Mavi did their best in their debut season.

At the auction this year, KKR bought a couple of exciting pacers in Lockie Ferguson and Anrich Nortje. While Ferguson has been impressive for the Kiwis in the recent past, Nortje is making news for his raw pace and is touted as the next big thing in South African cricket.

The Kolkata based franchise has also roped in Harry Gurney who has been effective in the different T20 leagues around the world. Also, Kamlesh Nagarkoti is set for his much anticipated IPL debut this season. However, KKR's biggest strength will be it's spin trio - Kuldeep Yadav, Sunil Narine and Piyush Chawla.

Kuldeep Yadav is currently one of the top spinners in the world and a lot will depend on his performance.
