With a one-year experience of the Impact Player rule, all 10 teams will enter IPL 2024 smarter and wiser. They will have ample resources to choose from, and the situations may even force them to think outside the box and outfox their opponents.
Generally, in white-ball cricket, only the pacers get the responsibility to bowl in the final overs. However, in recent years, some spinners have shown that they can do that job as well. Here’s a list of five spinners who can roll the arm over in death overs if needed by their teams in IPL 2024.
1. Noor Ahmad can bowl in death overs in IPL 2024
Noor Ahmad has troubled the batters with his left-arm wrist-spin across various T20 leagues. With a ton of experience under his belt, the Afghanistan spinner can do a better job for Gujarat Titans in slog overs than most of their fast bowlers.
2. Rashid Khan can bowl in death overs in IPL 2024
Another spinner from the Gujarat Titans team to feature on the list is Rashid Khan. He has a habit of bowling the pressure overs, and it can go one level ahead if Rashid bowls in the slog overs this season.
3. Yuzvendra Chahal
Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson assigned the responsibility of bowling some of the death overs to Yuzvendra Chahal last season. It should not be surprising if it continues in 2024.
4. Krunal Pandya
With extra pace and ability to hit the right lengths, Krunal Pandya can build a new identity for himself as a death bowler in 2024. He is the LSG vice-captain, and through this way, he can take more responsibility.
5. Sunil Narine
Even after so many seasons, Sunil Narine continues to be one of the most economical bowlers in the IPL. The mystery spinner can further showcase his talent by bowling in the death overs.
