With the Impact Player rule, the role of all-rounders has somewhat decreased in the IPL. Nevertheless, depth in both departments of the game is always useful. A good all-rounder adds value in both the departments of the game. It also depends on if the team is ready to make use of it. This is one of the main criterion based on which we have selected the teams for this piece. Here, we take a look at the list of four teams with the best all-rounders in IPL 2024.
Note: We have considered only the all-rounders who could be a part of the playing XI.
1) Mumbai Indians
In Hardik Pandya, Mumbai Indians have one of the best all-rounders in the league. He is also the captain of the side. Hardik himself makes MI one of the teams with the best all-rounders in the league.
Adding to Hardik, there are some batting all-rounders such as Tim David and Tilak Varma. Both of them can give some value with the ball. Gerald Coetzee is the new addition as the bowling all-rounder who can bat at No.8.
2) Chennai Super Kings
CSK is one of the teams with the best all-rounders in IPL 2024. The philosophy of CSK has always been about filling the team with some quality all-rounders.
Ravindra Jadeja and Mitchell Santner are two top all-rounders. Rachin Ravindra has now joined them. Shardul Thakur and Deepak Chahar are two good bowling all-rounders. Shivam Dube and Daryl Mitchell can provide some medium-pace bowling if needed.
3) Lucknow Super Giants
LSG also has some fine all-rounders in the team. Last year, Kyle Mayers helped them a lot in this regard. It is not sure if he would play a lot in IPL 2024.
Krunal Pandya and Marcus Stoinis are the main all-rounders for this team. Deepak Hooda is the batting all-rounder while K Gowtham is the bowling all-rounder. David Willey is a new addition as an all-rounder while someone like Shivam Mavi can also provide value as a batter.
4) Royal Challengers Bangalore
RCB is also one of the teams with the best all-rounders in IPL 2024. In recent years, RCB has focussed a lot on getting good all-rounders to the team.
Glenn Maxwell is one of the elite all-rounders in the game right now. Cameron Green has joined him at RCB. Now, RCB can get some five to six overs with the ball in the top half of the batting line-up. Mahipal Lomror, Swapnil Singh, Manoj Bhandage and Tom Curran are some of the other options.
