Quinton de Kock did not have a great IPL. He opened the batting with Brendon McCullum but struggled for runs at the top. He scored a total of 201 runs in IPL 2018. His strike rate was below 130 in the power play overs and he scored only one fifty in 8 innings. Not a season to remember for the Proteas wicket-keeper.

Moeen Ali 5/10

Moeen Ali got his chance late in the tournament and could not do much to take RCB to the playoffs. He played one match-winning knock, and apart from that, he was very quiet. In 5 games, Ali has scored 77 runs and picked up 3 wickets. Kohli should have tried him early in the season.

Colin de Grandhomme 6/10

He filled the all-rounder slot in RCB lineup, which was left open because of Woakes' poor form. He has played a couple of excellent cameos this season and finished the tournament with a strike rate of 156. He also did a decent job with the ball.

Parthiv Patel 6/10

Like Moeen Ali, Parthiv's chances came late in the tournament. Parthiv scored 153 runs in 6 games at a strike rate of 140.36. Unlike de Kock and McCullum, Parthiv was able to give good starts for RCB. One may feel that Kohli should have used him a little early.
