Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and their players have featured heavily in cricket news in the lead-up up to the 13th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2020).

Captain Virat Kohli claimed that this is the most balanced that the squad has been since their run to the IPL final in 2016, while AB de Villiers heaped praise on the former for instilling the right work ethic in the side.

The former South African captain also stated that there is a 'fresh' feel to the RCB team for IPL 2020, and promised fans that this year will be different.

With both the RCB players and fans having high hopes for the tournament, we could see the team genuinely contend for a playoff berth. Ahead of IPL 2020, we take a look at 5 RCB players who could finish the season with the most Dream11 points.


#5 Washington Sundar

RCB have a very strong top order consisting of Aaron Finch, Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, but the same depth is not present in the lower-middle order. And Washington Sundar, who is more the capable with the bat, could be perfect to lend some balance to the RCB side.

The Tamil Nadu man is, of course, an excellent option with the ball in the T20 format, and his ability in the powerplay will be a crucial aspect of RCB's plans in IPL 2020. With the pitches in the UAE favouring him, Sundar is a clear favourite to pick up a healthy number of Dream11 points over the course of the tournament.


#4 Chris Morris

RCB have struggled majorly with their death bowling over the years, with a significant number of matches lost in the final five overs of innings. In a bid shore up their fast-bowling resources, the team management shelled out big bucks to acquire the services of the experienced Chris Morris.

The South African is certain to pick up wickets both early on in the innings and at the death, and much like Sundar, he could make the most of the opportunities he gets in the lower middle order. Morris is primed to be on the first names on every Dream11 team in IPL 2020.


#3 Moeen Ali

Another all-rounder who is bound to feature in every game for RCB in IPL 2020, Moeen Ali is a key cog in the team's middle order. The Englishman can contribute in both departments, with his bowling expected to be a handful in the UAE.

Ali can also take on the spinners with ease, and he will be the perfect foil to the likes of Kohli and De Villiers. The 33-year-old's experience and versatility will allow him to be used in a variety of roles and situations, and it is very likely that he gathers a significant amount of Dream11 points in IPL 2020.


#2 AB de Villiers

A name that can't be missed out when talking about fantasy cricket in IPL 2020, AB de Villiers will have all eyes on him come the 21st of September. The former South African captain has retired from international cricket, but seemed to be in good touch in the country's 3TC tournament a while ago.

De Villiers is one of the greatest batsmen to have ever played the game, and despite the fact that he hasn't played top-level cricket in a long time, the RCB legend can be backed to be among IPL 2020's top run-scorers.


#1 Virat Kohli

Virat Kohli is an easy choice for #1 on this list. The RCB skipper is undoubtedly the team's most important batsman, and with him coming in at No. 3, he is a clear front-runner for the Orange Cap award.

Kohli's hunger and passion for the game are almost unmatched, and after such a long hiatus, he will be raring to go in IPL 2020. The Indian captain has expressed confidence in RCB's team composition for the tournament, and he could take his side very far in the coming months.

Kohli is guaranteed to generate huge Dream11 points hauls in IPL 2020.
