IPL 2022: With IPL 2022 less than a fortnight away, the speculations are running wild on the streets as fans and pundits are still trying to figure out the best playing eleven for every team. The most important part about the team’s perfect playing eleven is how the right chord of balance can be struck.
When we talk about the right chord of balance, a team must have a perfect mix of the youth and the experienced, a decent blend of agility and big-hitting and a decent rotation between their batting and bowling components.
Even though T20 is a batter’s paradise and with the advent of the new rules, life simply becomes easier for the willow-wielders. Irrespective of how well your batters are placed, it is your bowlers who help you in finding the winning note.
As we talk about bowling, it is important for all of us to figure out the right set of arms with the cherry in their hands for a team to excel to the advanced stages of the tournament. In this story, let us try and trace out the best bowling combination for the Rajasthan Royals.
Trent Boult
Needless to say, Trent Boult is one of the best fast bowlers currently and can bring down entire dynasties on his own. His rollicking displays for the Mumbai Indians allowed them to enhance a glorious trophy cabinet by a good deal. He is an excellent fast bowler with an arcing knack for kissing the timbre. He pretty often kisses the mark of 140 plus clicks and has a nasty bouncer that drifts both ways, to add to his arsenal. May it be the powerplay, the middle overs or the death overs, he is a perfect fit wherever you want him to be. IPL 2022 will be a fresh start for Boult in Royals’ colors.
The fast bowler hailing all the way from Australia posted a decent show with the cherry in his arms in the international arcade and had fair numbers in the jersey of Kolkata Knight Riders. The only problem for him was that didn’t have much game time in the last couple of IPL editions and is a bit blunter than he usually was. He has a keen eye for a tight line and has proven himself to be pretty economical against the big guns of the game. Even though the wickets have been hard to come by, yet he has compensated for that with a decent economy rate.
Yuzvendra Chahal can be the main bowler for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2022
The off-spinner will be donning the Rajasthan Royals jersey for the first time in his career, in IPL 2022. Given his display in the last couple of editions, he will be a real asset to the Royals. Given the fact, the tournament will be unfolding in Mumbai, the pitches are highly conducive to the spinners and Chahal’s wrong ones and googlies can forge a real spot of bother for the batters. It will be extremely exciting to see how the Royals line up with such a talented spinner in their ranks.
Prasidh Krishna
Prasidh proved himself to be a real thorn in the flesh of the batters with a decent display of speed variations. He varies his speed way too frequently and it leaves the batters in a state of tizzy. Despite his economy rate being on the higher side, Krishna has a decent arsenal that allows him to claim wickets at regular intervals and no matter whatsoever is the format of the sport, a bowler who has an eye for wickets is absolutely indispensable.
Fifth bowler: Ravichandran Ashwin/ Navdeep Saini/ Daryll Mitchell/ James Neesham
Ravichandran Ashwin proved his worth in the preceding edition of the IPL with some fine trickery. However, he can manifest himself in an even deadlier avatar as he returns to Mumbai, a spinners’ paradise.
Despite a silent 2021, Navdeep Saini is still one of India’s fastest and will undoubtedly be a top pick considering his ability to produce a couple of valuable yorkers.
Daryll Mitchell’s transition into a seam bowler speaks volumes about the seasoned Kiwi campaigner and he will be a name to watch out for. James Neesham is a decent all-rounder and can be a fine pick given his medium-pace finesse and his eye for some relentless accuracy
