Deep Dasgupta picks his team with the best bowling attack on red soil.

Expert Deep Dasgupta went with four teams with a good bowling attack in the Indian T20 League 2022 but ends up choosing Rajasthan as the best among those four.

The other option for the Punjab Kings can be the West Indies all-rounder Odean Smith, wh
