The wrist spinners are potential wicket-taking bowlers for any team.

The wrist spinners are in vogue these days across all formats and in this season of IPL also they will be playing a crucial role for their respective franchises.

In the Saturday clash between Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad, Kuldeep Yadav and Rashid Khan can prove to be the game changers. With wrist spinners there is the risk of them leaking runs, but always have the knack of picking wickets.

Rashid is a wily bowler with lot of varieties after having played lot of limited-overs cricket for Afghanistan and featuring in various T20 leagues across the world. From 29 T20Is, the 19-year-old has picked 47 wickets at an economy of 13.72.

On the other hand, Kuldeep as a chinaman could be predictable and it is a challenge for Knight Riders when to get him into the attack. He has featured in eight T20Is for India with an economy of 7.65. He will grow in confidence as a bowler, the more he plays the shortest format.
