Virat KohliAB de Villiers, Devdutt Padikkal, Yuzvendra Chahal, Mohammed Siraj, Kane Richardson, Washington Sundar, Pavan Deshpande, Finn Allen, Shahbaz Ahmad, Navdeep Saini, Adam Zampa, Kyle Jamieson, Glenn Maxwell, Rajat Patidar, Sachin Baby, Mohammed Azharuddin, Daniel Christian, KS Bharat, Suyash Prabhudessai, Daniel Sams, Harshal Patel.

 

Strength

  • Virat Kohli is one of the best players in the IPL and with 5 centuries in IPL, he is set to roar again.
  • RCB has AB de Villiers who can win the match on his own. No total is safe if Mr. 360 is at the crease.
  • RCB has bought Glenn Maxwell and it will release pressure from Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers.
  • Devdutt Padikkal was in outstanding form in Vijay Hazare Trophy. He scored four consecutive centuries. In the last season, Devdutt Padikkal was the highest run-scorer for Royal Challengers Bangalore.
  • RCB has bought uncapped promising players like Mohammed Azharuddin and Rajat Patidar that will strengthen their batting.
  • The team reached the playoffs in the last season.

 

Weakness

  • The batting is highly dependent on Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, Devdutt Padikkal, and Glenn Maxwell.
  • The bowling of RCB was always on a weaker end. They have released Chris Morris who was amazing in the last season.
  • Royal Challengers Bangalore does not have like-for-like replacements for players like Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers.
  • Daniel Sams is out for the first few matches due to COVID-19.
  • If there will be an injury to AB de Villiers and Virat Kohli, the entire balance of the team will be disturbed. Without Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, Royal Challengers Bangalore does not stand a chance to reach the playoffs.
  • Lack of experience in winning the final. The team reached the final three times and lost all.
