Sunil Narine has been instrumental for the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) since 2012 when he took the competition by storm with his ‘mystery spin’ which batsmen from all teams had difficulties coping with. His bowling figures were outstanding in the tournament with 24 wickets and an economy rate of less than 6 runs per over made him his skipper’s go-to bowler. Narine was rewarded with his maiden Test call-up immediately after the end of the IPL. In 2014 too he played a big part for the KKR once again assisting them on their way to the title with 21 wickets and an economy rate of just a shade over 6 and a half. Narine has certainly evolved as one of the best spinners in the shortest format.
