Meanwhile, Zampa and Richardson are expected to play a key role for RCB as the tournament progresses. as the pitches get slower, Zampa is likely to feature in the playing XI and bowl in tandem with Yuzvendra Chahal. As far as Richardson is concerned he will also be in the scheme of things to improve the death bowling of RCB which has always been their Achilles heel.

Furthermore, the Virat Kohli led RCB started their IPL campaign with an impressive win over the defending champs Mumbai Indians and will now be up against SRH tonight in Chennai.
