The Royal Challengers Bangalore is an underdog team of the Indian Premier League. Despite having the finest & top cricketers in the squad, RCB is known as an underachiever by never winning the title. However, they still managed to become the runner-ups in three different seasons. Virat Kohli is the skipper of RCB, who is also the captain of the main Indian national cricket team.

Meanwhile, the striking combination of Ab De Villiers & Kohli is more than enough to steer lightning & fear on the ground. But the lack of balanced squad selection in bowling led to the failure of RCB in the past seasons. The IPL auctions play major roles as the team management is always eager in buying all-stars for the squad.

Unlike other teams, RCB has also made the highest & lowest records as 263/5 & 49/10 respectively. Devdutt Padikkal was the main batsman of IPL 13 for RCB who contributed 473 runs with an average of 31.55 scores. Similarly, Yuzvendra Chahal became a backbone bowler who took just 21 wickets in 15 innings, the highest.

Which players RCB should buy in IPL 2021?

In our opinion, RCB management should focus on balancing the team by buying equal numbers of batsmen, wicketkeeper, bowlers, and fielders. Rather than going for all-stars, they should invest in Trent Boult, a New Zealand bowler, who led Mumbai Indians to victory last year. RCB already has the top batsman in the world (Kohli & Villiers), that they need to retain. When it comes to fielding & wicket keeping, the top names suggested for RCB are Glenn Maxwell, Ross Taylor, Ben Stokes, & a few more.
