The seam bowling all-rounder was acquired by the Royal Challengers Bangalore by trading their Indian batsman Mandeep Singh. Marcus Stoinis has shown a lot of potential, playing for Australia and his BBL team Melbourne Stars, but is yet to perform to his fullest in the IPL.

The Perth-born has played 19 IPL matches, where he scored 262 runs including a fifty against Delhi Capitals, playing for the Kings XI Punjab. He mostly batted at 6 or 7 although his lone 50 came when he batted right at the top.

In the ongoing Big Bash League, Stoinis has opened for Stars on numerous occasions and he returned with impressive numbers. The 29-year-old has scores of 43, 53, 70*, 34, 78* and looked solid whenever he got the opportunity to face the new ball.

To give justice to his talent, RCB must try him out at the top in the upcoming edition.
