In at number 7, will be Piyush Chawla. The veteran leg spinner of KKR will return this year with his quick googlies. Chawla is an important player in this lineup as he offers something different to Kuldeep Yadav and he can also bat a bit, which comes handy in the slog overs.

In at number 8, will be Prasidh Krishna. Krishna was brilliant for KKR last year and his death bowling was a revelation. Krishna has more responsibility this year as Shivam Mavi is absent for the whole tournament.

In at number 10 will be, Lockie Ferguson. The New Zealand speedster adds a bit of pace to this bowling lineup. Ferguson has enjoyed a good year internationally for the Black Caps and will be looking to produce the goods for KKR this year.

In at number 11, will be Kuldeep Yadav. Yadav is clearly the leader of the bowling attack. The Chinaman has been nothing short of brilliant in Indian colours and will be heading into IPL 2019 in red hot form. Yadav can also be considered as one of the favourites to win the purple cap this year.
