IPL 2018: 4 reason why the Kings XI Punjab may clinch their maiden title

#1 Well balanced squad

Yuvraj Singh will be a key player in the middle order

The Kings have one of the most balanced squads this IPL. In Mayank Agarwal and Chris Gayle, they have an aggressive left-right hand combination who are capable of taking any attack to the cleaners on their day.

With the likes of K.L. Rahul, Karun Nair, David Miler, Yuvraj Singh, Marcus Stoinis and Manoj Tiwari in the middle order, the Kings management will have a problem of plenty to choose from in the middle order.

The spinners in Ashwin and Patel and the fast bowlers in Tye, Mohit Sharma, and Sran have experience of playing cricket at the international level. Overall the team is a well-balanced one with only one weakness i.e. the absence of a specialist wicketkeeper.

The Kings have the team to take them to glory this season. With the dynamic players in the lineup, the Kings start as one of the pre-tournament favorites and will hope that Ashwin will lead them to their maiden IPL trophy.
