RCB Predictions
A perfect blend for the perfect season win
Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli has already confirmed that he will be opening the batting in the upcoming season of the IPL. Devdutt Padikkal who had an impressive debut IPL season last year and also did extremely well in the recently concluded Vijay Hazare Trophy, will partner Virat at the top. The likes of AB de Villiers, Glenn Maxwell, Daniel Christian and Mohammed Azharuddeen will form part of the middle-order.
RCB Predictions:
RCB’s newest recruit in young Azharuddeen is likely to take the gloves this season. The trio of Kyle Jamieson, Navdeep Saini and Mohammed Siraj will be the frontline fast bowlers with Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar as the two spinners.
