Colin de Grandhomme has been a utility player for RCB but hasn't shone with both bat and ball with extensive opportunities to prove himself in both sides of the game. With players like Marcus Stoinis and Nathan Coulter-Nile set to be available for selection soon, de Grandhomme's days seem to be numbered.

De Grandhomme can be replaced by another spin bowling all-rounder like Pawan Negi or Washington Sundar to have the extra spinner in the side. They have enough pace bowling resources and hence they can also play an extra batsman instead of de Grandhomme. Whoever comes in, de Grandhomme is likely to be dropped.

#1 Keemo Paul (Delhi Capitals)

Keemo Paul has been a fill-in overseas player for the Delhi Capitals and has done an average job for the Capitals. He has scored 3 runs and picked up a wicket in both the matches but with plenty of better options like Chris Morris and Trent Boult available, Paul is expected to make way.

He was never a permanent option and though he hasn't done too much wrong, he is just not good enough to be in the side ahead of Morris and is likely to be dropped. He has to be dropped to get the team balance right and the Capitals will look a better team without him.
