IPL 2020 TEAM PREVIEW: ROYAL CHALLENGERS BANGALORE

The RCB fanbase would be keen to see ABD back in action

Royal Challengers Bangalore would be keen to win their maiden IPL title this year. They have brought in Mike Hesson as the head coach. It would be interesting to see how the former Kings XI Punjab coach manages the RCB squad.

They have a strong leader in the form of King Kohli, who will be a part of the top order alongside Aaron Finch and Parthiv Patel. The South African superstar, Mr. 360, AB de Villiers would be seeing through the middle overs as usual. They have Chris Morris and Moeen Ali to power the lower order. Batting has never been a problem for RCB. They have one of the strongest batting lineups among all the eight franchises.

It will be interesting to see how they their bowling attack will cope in the death overs. The death overs has always been a problem for the RCB bowling attack. Their pace battery will get a huge boost in the form of Dale Steyn. Umesh ayqdav and Mohammad Siraj have been very expensive in the death overs, which has cost RCB many games. The addition of Kane Richardson and Chris Morris will assist the pace bowlers. 

RCB has come up with a new logo this season.

However, spin will have a major role to play in this year's IPL happening in UAE, due to the pandemic. The slow turning pitches of Abu Dhabi and Sharjah will assist the strong spin bowling attack of RCB. Yuzvendra Chahal has proven to be a major part of the RCB bowling attack. He will be assisted by Moeen Ali, Washington Sundar and Pawan Negi. They have got quite a few options in their spin bowling department. It will be interesting to see which combination they pick for their playing eleven.

With their strengthened bowling attack, Virat Kohli's RCB would look to break the curse and lift their maiden IPL trophy this year. Virat would be eager to lead his team to glory. Inspite of their poor performance last season, the Challengers cannot be ruled out as title contenders this season.
