The Best XI from the group stage of this season's IPL

LOWER ORDER

Sunil Narine

This West Indian mystery spinner has been a great bonus for his franchise this season. He has made some great contributions with the bat at the top of the order. His franchise send him to score some quick runs in the power play overs and he has been successful in doing so. He has scored 214 runs in 14 matches with a strike rate of 178.33 and has also taken 10 wickets at an economy of 7.27. His 17- ball 54 against RCB is the fastest fifty in the history of the IPL.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar

He has been the pick of the bowlers. He has been the most consistent bowler for his franchise SRH over the past few years of the tournament. He is the purple cap holder with 25 wickets in 13 matches with an economy of 6.97. He is the go-to type of bowler that any captain would want in his bowling attack. His ability to bowl consistent yorkers at the death overs makes him more dangerous to play against.

Imran Tahir

He has been the perfect replacement for injured Mitchell Marsh. The South African leg spinner has been consistent in taking regular wickets for his franchise RPS whenever needed. He has taken 18 wickets so far in 12 matches that he has played with an economy of 7.85. He is third in the race of the purple cap.

Jaydev Unadkat

This young lad has impressed us a lot with his consistent wicket taking form for RPS. He is one of the main reason why RPS have reached to the knockout stage of the competition. He is the strike bowler for RPS. He has been a great find for RPS as he has been successful in bowling at the death overs also. He has taken 21 wickets in 10 matches with an economy of 7.38. He has also taken a hat-trick this season.
