IPL 2020: One overseas player from each team who might warm the bench for most of the season

#6 Sunrisers Hyderabad - Fabian Allen

Fabian Allen is a quality back-up to have

Fabian Allen, the West Indian left-arm off-spinner, was bought by Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in the IPL 2020 auctions and he will be playing the tournament for the very first time.

Allen is a three-dimensional player, who can bowl, bat, and is brilliant in the field but most probably, he has been signed as a back-up option and most likely as a replacement for Shakib Al-Hasan.

Rashid Khan will be the first choice option as the overseas spinner, apart from whom, SRH also have Shahbaz Nadeem in their squad. So, it's fair to say that Allen might not get many games this season.

#5 Delhi Capitals - Jason Roy

Jason Roy might find it hard to get an opening spot

One of the biggest names in the IPL, who might not even get a game is Jason Roy. The Englishman won the World Cup last year and has been in the form of his life but for some reason, he has never got going in the IPL. In all the 8 games Roy has played, he has scored 179 runs, which is not a bad return but his problems facing spin, especially at the Feroz Shah Kotla has meant that the Englishman has never gotten a run of games or a long rope.

Also, Delhi Capitals have a stacked up opening department with Shikhar Dhawan, Ajinkya Rahane, and Prithvi Shaw, so it's highly unlikely that Roy will get much game time in IPL 2020, unless a reshuffle in the batting order come to fore.
