IPL 2018: Knocked out playing XI that can beat the qualified teams

Fast bowlers - Umesh Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah and Andrew Tye

These three have spearheaded the attack for their respective teams

One of the surprise performers with the ball this season is Umesh Yadav as the right-arm pacer ended the league stage at second in the Purple Cap list as he managed to take 20 wickets in 14 wickets at an average of less than 21 and an economy of 7.90.

He has been a phenomenon in the powerplay overs for RCB as he troubled the batsmen with his pace and swing.

Australian fast bowler Andrew Tye is the leading wicket-taker after the league stage with 24 wickets but unfortunately for him, his team failed to go through to the playoffs and finds a place in our playing XI.

Completing the pace attack will be Mumbai Indians' pacer Jasprit Bumrah, who just edged Trent Boult for a place in the team in spite of finishing with one wicket less.

Bumrah finished the season with 17 wickets at an average of 21 and an economy of 6.88, something that is simply sensational for a bowler who bowls in the death overs.

Imagine a team having Tye and Bumrah operating in the death overs. RIP, opposition batsmen!
