Is Sunrisers' bowling attack too much dependent on Dale Steyn?

Is Sunrisers' bowling attack too much dependent on Dale Steyn?

Yes obviously dependent on steyn ... But in previous seasons ,its too much,the resent auctions induced a change in the scenario which reduces the burden and pressure on steyn as a sole bowler of the team.
Now the team includes Bhuvneshwar Kumar,the young and energetic indian pacer.He can be a supporting bowler to steyn in the bowling attack.
Coming to steyn, he is one of the most consistent and dynamic bowlers in the league.
He can bowl and grab the match from the opponents at any point of match,that is his capability.
He took 78 wickets in his IPL career,bowling with a minimum economy .Scoring runs in his spell is like a hell.
In earlier series of IPL,he provided sunrisers with many single handed victories.The fury of his ball has a capacity to turn the match 180 degrees.
On the other hand Bhuvi is a raising pacer in the cricking world without much experience but he can be lead successsfully by steyn as he leads the bowling department.
Though he is not a bullet pacer he swings the ball well and get wickets consequently restricting the batsman from scoring runs.
Also he had a good track record in T20 IPL fiction.
          Previously this was not the condition.Ishant performs well once in a full moon and the bowling attack is too much dependent on steyn.
He does not make mistakes in any of the matches he played,his perfection is at peaks.Taking into account the most recent performance in T20 world cup, Dale Steyn bowled extremely well except in the match against India and Bhuvi is a bit disappointing.
We know that IPL fills the players with enthusiasm and energize them,which booms up their abilities and spirits so we can hope that bhuvi can come back.
            Irfan pathan,one of the senior most bowlers in IPL,took 76 wickets in IPL but in return gave double the runs given by steyn.
He may not uplift the bowling attack of the team up to great extent but a little hope lies on him at the end of batting lineup as an all rounder,
inspite of that he too had a nice track record in some seasons.Spinner Amit Mishra has 2 stunning hat tricks in his IPL career .
Though can restrict the run flow and he’s a consistant wicket taker.Unlike the previous bowling attach of the team,now it has a versatile bowling attack.
Steyn starts the innings with the new ball at one end and Bhuvi,Ishant or Irfan at the other end , in middle overs Mishra ,Bhuvi,Sammy take the charge.
Captain Dhavan has huge bowling options in the form of Steyn,Bhuvi,Sammy,Mishra,Irfan,Chandimal,Ashish Reddy,Ishanth.
Every thing depends on the thought process and vision of the captain as the team majorly depends on bowling and every moment depends on desition of the captain in using the bowling resources.
Its obvious that every ones eyes would be on Steyn,the world top ranker in bowling and also a match winner and match turner in this T20 limited over fiction.
He is a boon to the team.If Ishanth and Bhuvi support him well ,there is no exaggeration in saying that the match becomes one sided provided satisfactory effort from batsmen.
There is no doubt that Dale Steyn the gun man will have a stunning performance as usual and he is also a man of experience and inspiration for young bowlers in team inregard to his pace and consitancy.
