In Prabhath Weerasooriya, the Vikings have the most talented slow bowler in the country. He can bowl whippy leg breaks or conventional off-spin, with a host of subtle variations. He became the first Icelander to take a five-wicket innings during the ÍPL last year. Sathiya Rupan, freed from the shackles at Kópavogur where he had few opportunities to bowl, is a pure leg-spinner with the one attribute Weerasooriya lacks: big turn. Two new signings provide back-up to the frontline spinners: Arun Cheerankavil and Omar Safi Khan, both off-spinners who were added to the squad in January.
