IPL 2018: Predicting where the 8 Franchises would finish on the Points Table

#5 Royal Challengers Bangalore

RCB are looking for their first IPL trophy

Royal Challengers Bangalore are one of the three teams to have never won the league even once.

IPL trophy has been eluding Kohli for the last 10 years and he will be desperate to lay his hands on the trophy this time.

The present RCB squad looks the most balanced squad that the team has had in the last few years as RCB under Kohli had a tendency of placing all their eggs in one basket.

They have always bought the most destructive batsman without paying enough attention to their bowling but this year it has changed.

With the likes of Chris Woakes, Umesh Yadav, Mohammed Siraj and Navdeep Saini the team has a decent pace bowling attack. Washington Sundar, Yuzvendra Chahal, and Murugan Ashwin form a tremendous spin trio. This RCB bowling attack is the best that the franchise has had.

Quinton De Kock & McCullum will open the batting followed by Kohli at No. 3 and De Villiers at No. 4.

This top four is bound to give nightmares to the opposition bowlers but the problem with RCB is their lack of finishers.

Sarfraz Khan is a great young talent but expecting him to finish the innings everytime is too big a burden for him.
