A few seasons ago, everyone wanted a leg-spinner in the squad. The role of an off-spinner was not that huge. However, Chennai Super Kings won IPL 2024 without having a leg-spinner in the team. Off-spinners also have a great role now, especially in this era of matchups. A few teams are lucky and have done well in building their squad. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of two teams with the best off-spinners for IPL 2024.
1) Kolkata Knight Riders
Kolkata Knight Riders have one of the best spin attacks for IPL 2024. The core of their spin attack is built around Sunil Narine and Varun CV. While both offer a bit of mystery, they are primarily off-spinners. Left-handed batters struggle to pick them while both Sunil and Varun have variations to trick the right-handed batters, as well.
Along with Sunil and Varun, for IPL 2024, KKR also has Mujeeb-Ur-Rahman. He would be the backup for Sunil. It would not be a surprise if he gets a chance within the first few matches. Nitish Rana is a part-time off-spinner available in the squad while Anukul Roy is the primary left-arm off-spin option.
2) Chennai Super Kings
CSK is one of the teams with the best off-spinners for IPL 2024. Ravindra Jadeja and Maheesh Theekshana form the core of CSK’s spin attack for IPL 2024 as they did for IPL 2023. While Maheesh has a bit of a mystery element, Jaddu is traditional and is arguably the best left-arm spinner in the league.
The supporting cast in this regard is also off-spinners. Moeen Ali and Mitchell Santner are experienced options here. However, they might not get a chance in the playing XI often. Rachin Ravindra, the newest addition, is an upcoming all-rounder and he is a left-arm spinner. He is likely to be used a lot in IPL 2024.
