2. Bowler’s in dazzling form
Often labeled as Royal Challengers Bangalore’s weakest link, their Bowling attack has proved to be their strength this year. The likes of Kyle Jamieson and Harshal Patel have developed the knack of picking wickets in crucial situations.
Their bowling line-up has collectively picked up 45 wickets, the second-most by a bowling attack this season. Their right-arm medium pacer, Harshal Patel is the current Purple Cap holder with 17 wickets in 7 matches, with 5/27 being his best. Harshal has conceded runs at a 9.17 economy rate, but his wicket-taking capability is what has made him the standout performer.
The Kiwi pacer, Kyle Jamieson is in the form of his life. He has picked up 9 wickets in 7 games so far in IPL 2021, but looking at his current form, he is one of the most dangerous bowlers in world cricket at the moment. If their bowling attack continues its impressive performance, RCB will be a tough team to beat in the UAE leg of the Indian Premier League 2021.
