Shakib Al Hasan (Bangladesh)
Not a big spinner of the ball but a smart bowler and the fact he has been playing in the Big Bash League just before the tournament means he has got recent and relevant first-hand experience of conditions. The downside may be that he will have to be both a stock bowler, keeping it quiet, as well as a wicket-taker, so for him to be very effective it will need other members of the Tigers attack to step up and take wickets too. If they do not then opponents will be content to just play out Shakib's overs knowing they can score off the other bowlers.
Ravichandran Ashwin (India)
Another bowler with recent experience of Australian conditions and although he has not had an especially successful time, that experience will stand him in good stead. Has clever variations and will also revel in the extra bounce he is likely to find. Ashwin is also an excellent performer in the powerplay overs and when batsmen are looking to attack him, which could count in his favour.
