Faf du Plessis

Glenn Maxwell

Dinesh Karthik

Shahbaz Ahmed

Shabaz has been playing little cameos as well alongside Karthik in the final overs. Against GT he did not have his chance, however, Bangalore will hope that he contributes with both bat and ball.

Mahipal Lomror

Lomror was brought into the side for their last game against Gujarat Titans. He scored 16 off just 8 balls. He will contribute to finishing the innings for RCB alongside Karthik and Shahbaz Ahmed.

Wanindu Hasaranga

Hasarnga has taken 15 wickets so far in IPL 2022. Against GT, he picked up 2 for 28. He has also blown cold in the last few games since the slide started for the Royal Challengers Bangalore. He needs to be back into the wickets for his side.

Harshal Patel

Patel has taken 10 wickets so far in IPL 2022. He has looked a shadow of himself. Against the Gujarat Titans, he bowled a wicketless spell for 35 runs.

Mohammed Siraj

Siraj has not been consistent enough this season for the Royal Challengers Bangalore. He has taken just 8 wickets in the 10 matches that he has played so far. He has gone wicketless in a few games as well.
