2019 couldn't have been any better for England's limited-overs skipper Eoin Morgan, who was sensational with the bat, amassing 371 runs during his team's victorious ICC Cricket World Cup campaign at home. An experienced T20 campaigner (6185 runs in 282 T20s), Morgan, with his big-hitting abilities, might just be the right kind of batsman to bolster RCB's middle order. The 33-year-old, who began his IPL career with Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2010, subsequently moved on to Kolkata Knight Riders, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Kings XI Punjab.

Having managed just 35 runs in six matches during season three, Morgan's one-year stint with RCB was a forgettable one. The Dublin-born left-handed batsman looked in a good touch (two half-centuries in six innings) during the recently concluded Abu Dhabi T10 league where he led the Delhi Bulls side. Considering his experience, 2019 World Cup exploits, and a current good run with the bat, Morgan is sure to land a lucrative IPL contract this time after missing out in the last two editions. RCB might just go all-out at the auction to secure the Englishman, who could add more firepower to the batting.
