But they did not have such batsmen in the middle and lower order position who could carry the team towards formidable scores. This season, Daniel Christian and Daniel Sams have been registered to sort out this problem. Both the cricketers have enough experience and potential in the shortest format of the game. Christian will be playing for the team after a gap of 6 years and in recent times he has won Leagues in England, West Indies, Australia, and South Africa.
Sams is being called one of the prodigious cricketers in the world in the present times. In form, Sams is a devastating batsman for any bowler. He has shown splendid performance in the BBL in recent times. Interestingly, Sams can also be used as a frontline pacer for his accuracy. He can highly effective in the number 7 position in RCB.

Yuzvendra Chahal and Navdeep Saini also have represented India in the limited-over cricket. Apart from these five cricketers, Devdutt Padikkal is there who has been in tremendous form in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy. So he is expected to maintain the same form in the IPL also.
Less dependency on ABD and Kohli
