IPL 2018: 5 players KKR can look at as possible replacement for Sunil Narine

#2 Ish Sodhi

Ish Sodhi is one of the leading bowlers in the shortest format of the game right now

Sodhi is a different sort of a leg-spinner than Badree. He is more classical and gets his leg spinners to dip nicely into the right-handers before turning away. And to make that delivery that bit more efficient, he can bowl the googly as well and he often bowls it very wisely without getting predictable.

He is a thinking cricketer and that is probably the reason he is one of the top bowlers across the globe in T20 cricket right now.

His base price of Rs 50 Lakh was pretty affordable for the franchises. So it definitely raised a few eyebrows when his name passed by without anyone bidding on it. If Narine takes his name out of the KKR squad, it might open up an opportunity for the Kiwi to showcase his skills.
