What is the greatest IPL 2018 XI that could possibly beat 2016 T20 Champions West Indies?

#7 Rashid Khan

The vile leg-spinner from Afghanistan

The 2016 IPL champions Sunrisers Hyderabad were on quite a roll this season, with the bowling at the helm, which has proceeded to bamboozle and choke the life of the chasing teams.

Rashid was the spearhead of the SRH attack as he single-handedly won them the Qualifier 02 against the Kolkata Knight Riders. Rashid scored a quick-fire 10-ball-34 and backed it up with a spell of 3-19 (4) coupled with two catches.

With a plethora of varieties at his disposal, most prominent being the wrong'un, Rashid was successful in choking the batsmen during the middle-overs and amassed 21 wickets at an average of 21.80 and a miserly economy of 6.73.

#8 Kuldeep Yadav

Kuldeep was a crucial part of KKR set-up

The left-arm chinaman has impressed the cricketing world with his guile as well as his exuberance.

The mystery spin is the flavor of the season, and with a plethora of power-hitters at Windies disposal, the combo of Khan and Yadav can weave a stranglehold on their famed batting line-up.

Yadav had a great IPL with the Kolkata Knight Riders, as he scalped 17 wickets in sixteen games at an average of 24.58 which included a 4-wicket-haul against the Rajasthan Royals.
