Best bowlers win you matches even in IPL

To the most convinced or popular belief that IPL is made for Batsman only who hits 6's at will.

Just look at RCB record at IPL, they used to have 4 best batsmen, including Kohli, Gayle, and Kohli. Tournament won by them = 0.

If you look at the top teams, CSK, MI, KKR, and now SRH, they win most games with their bowlers. Regardless of pitches thrown at them, they concur more likely compare to others due to depth of bowling they have.

Recent bowling friendly pitches have prove that teams with better bowlers win more IPL games than sheer batting power.

In Last season final, MI defended 129 to win the tournament. MI bowled brilliant death bowling to win that game

I think this is true in all formats of cricket, in general. If your bowling is weak then it will be tough to win games. I think one reason why India is a far better team today than 10 years ago is the improvement in bowling.

Agreed, good bowlers in a batsmen friendly format like T20 are very valuable
