IPL 2019: Go-to bowlers for each team
The Indian Premier League enters its 12th edition in 2019. As always there will be some surprises in store for us this time around as well, as it has been over the last 11 years.
The batsmen may be the heroes in the shortest format of the game, but winning an IPL match let alone a long tournament like IPL depends upon the strength of the bowling unit. Each team has a go-to or a reliable bowler that they can rest their hope on.

The go-to bowlers are the ones that bring back the hope in the fielding side with their tight spells or partnership-breaking wickets.
In no particular order, let’s have a look at the go-to bowlers who can propel their respective teams to victory.
#8 Delhi Capitals - Sandeep Lamichhane
Sandeep Lamichhane will be playing his second season with the Delhi Capitals side after making his debut in the last season. In the span of two years, Sandeep has already earned the status of being their go-to bowler.
This quick growth is because of the mystery that he brings to the table. Mystery spinners are the players that each target in any Auction and the success shown by him in the BBL and other T20 leagues make him a valuable commodity in any team.
Leg-spinners have become a vital part of any T20 setup. With a senior figure like Amit Mishra in the squad, Lamichhane is bound to grow as a bowler.
A clever bowler far beyond his years with world-beating variations and disguises, Lamichhane is definitely one for the future.
