The Team is all packed with fantastic batters, from openers to lower-order batters. The middle-order batsmen are the winning catapult of the Team. The Team’s pacing department is violent enough, but the franchise is suffering from the lack of spinners in the Team. The Team has performed tremendously well in all the IPL series, so we hope that Team can sustain that pressure.
