Predicted RCB Squad for IPL 2025: An Speculation

Predicting the exact squad for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) 2025 involves considering several factors like player retentions, potential acquisition in the auction, and the team’s strategy based on their performance in previous season. Here is a speculative look at what RCB’s squad might look like for IPL 2025:

Retained Players:

• Virat Kohli
• Rajat Patidar
• Yash Dayal

Potential Right to Match (RTM) Players:

Mohammad Siraj – Although not retained directly, RCB might use Right to Match card for him due to his pivotal role in the bowling attack.

 

Glenn Maxwell – His experience and all-round capabilities might be utilized via RTM if not retained.

Overseas Players:

Cameron Green – There’s been speculation about his acquisition. His all-round skills would be a great addition.


• Will Jacks – Known for his explosive batting, could be retained or bought back.


• Wanindu Hasaranga – RCB might look to reacquire him if released by his current team for his leg-spin and batting.


• Mitchel Starc – If available in the auction, RCB might bid for him to bolster their pace attack.

Indian Players:

• Suyash Prabhudesai, Anuj Rawat, Mahipal Lomror, Manoj Bhandage, Karn Sharma – These players might be kept or replace based on their performances and the team’s strategy for balance.


• Vyshak Vijaykumar, Akash Deep – Could be retained for their domestic performances or replaced with new talents from the auction.

New Talents:

Shreyas Gopal– Might be looked at for his leg-spin and lower-order batting.


Devdutt Padikkal – If available, his familiarity with RCB and his form might bring him in.


Manish Pandey – A seasoned campaigner who could add depth to the batting.

 

This prediction assumes RCB will aim to strengthen their bowling, particularly in the spin department, and continue to have a solid batting lineup. The mega auction provides an opportunity for teams to rebuild, so this squad might see significant changes based on auction dynamics, player fitness and strategic decisions by the management.

 

Disclaimer: This is speculative based on current trends, player performances, and team needs. The actual squad could vary significantly depending on numerous factors including auction results, player availability, and unforeseen changes in player form or management decisions.
