2. Parthiv Patel
It is expected that the wicket-keeper will be a sure starter in the playing XI since he’s also the vice-captain of the side. He will have the onus of giving RCB quick starts in the powerplay as he will lay a strong foundation for batsmen like Kohli and Ab De Villiers.
It’s been 2 seasons since Parthiv Patel has been associated with the RCB and has played the role of the sole wicket-keeper in the side. Though this year RCB have picked Josh Phillipe, it is highly unlikely that he will make it to the playing XI.
So, we expect Parthiv to be a sure starter in majority matches this year for RCB.
