IPL 2018: Key all-rounders for each IPL side

​

There is always a puzzlement in T20 cricket as far as team combinations are concerned, whether to go with the seven batsmen - four bowlers combination, or with a surplus batsman in the playing eleven. That is the reason why the teams opt for all-rounders in their side to provide much-needed stability, giving them sufficient batting depth and an extra bowling option as well.

Here are the best all-rounders from each IPL side, on whom the teams will lean on in the 2018 season.
