An IPL XI that could take on the World T20 champions Windies

Spinners:

#8 Yuzvendra Chahal (Royal Challengers Bangalore)

The vile little sensation-Yuzvendra Chahal

Yuzvendra Chahal has grown by leaps and bounds as a wrist-spinner in the past two seasons.

While bowling on a ground as small as the Chinnaswamy stadium, Chahal's strength lies in tossing the ball up whilst inviting the batsmen to go for the big shots.

This quality was epitomised to the hilt in the recently concluded limited over series in South Africa where the vile leg-spinner foxed the batsman with the turn and guile and would prove to be an asset against the power hitters of the Windies.

#9 Mitchell Santner (Chennai Super Kings)

Santner has developed into a handy all-rounder for New Zealand

With a strike-rate of 128.79 and 29 T20I wickets, the sixth-ranked T20I left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner makes his way into the side.

With immaculate control and miserly economy coupled with power-hitting blitz down the order, Santner has developed into a handy all-rounder for New Zealand, but his magnum opus truly arrived in a World T20 game against India in 2016 when he ran through the famed Indian batting line in a barely believable haul of 4-11.

Santner has been picked by the Chennai Super Kings in the 2018 IPL auctions, and he'd be expected to portray a crucial role in the resurgence of the Chennai based franchise.
