IPL: 5 Players who could guide RCB to the title next year

#3 Yuzvendra Chahal

He has carried this form into the international cricket scene and has proven to be a man whom Virat Kohli can always turn to when he needs a wicket

Yuzvendra Chahal is one of the most dangerous spinners in cricket at the moment. He is one of only two spinners in the history of T20 cricket to have taken a six-wicket haul. His skills with the ball as well as his wicket-taking abilities have made him Virat Kohli's go-to man at the Royal Challengers Bangalore during previous IPL seasons.

He has carried this form into the international cricket scene and has proven to be a man whom Virat Kohli can always turn to when he needs a wicket.

Supporting statistics

Chahal is one of only two spinners in the history of T20 cricket to have taken a 6 wicket haul, which underlines his wicket-taking abilities.

He has also shown himself to be a difficult bowler to score off in recent IPL seasons, which has seen him earn a call-up to the national team.

He has made quite an impact on the international level as well, and there are many batsmen who are fully aware of his potential to turn a match on its head.

What does he need to do?

Chahal needs to recapture the form which resulted in him getting called up to the Indian side.

With RCB clearly struggling in the bowling department, Chahal needs to step up and add a danger element to the bowling attack.

Sides batting against RCB simply do not seem troubled by the current bowling and the imposing totals which the batting lineup do post don't seem intimidating anymore.

A dangerous spinner in a team, especially in subcontinent conditions, is always going to be a lot for a batting side to handle.

Chahal needs to improve his current game and ensure that this is the role which he plays in the side.
