Virat Kohli, Plessis To Open No Bracewell: RCB's Likely Playing XI For IPL 2023

Virat Kohli is set to open the innings in IPL 2023, after making way for Anuj Rawat at the top last season and then returning as opener after a few matches.

Virat Kohli

Faf Du Plessis

RCB captain Faf Du Plessis aims to end the team's trophy drought this year, starting off the proceedings with his predecessor.

Rajat Patidar

Rajat Patidar's impressive performance in IPL 2023 earned him a spot on the Indian team, but he is yet to be capped at the international level. He will bat at number three for RCB.

Glenn Maxwell

All-rounder Glenn Maxwell is set to bat at number four for the season and can also contribute important wickets depending on the match situation.

Mahipal Lomror

Mahipal Lomror is expected to feature in the playing XI for his ability to contribute in both departments of the game. The left-arm bowler played in seven matches during IPL 2022.

Dinesh Kartik

Dinesh Karthik will continue as RCB's finisher in IPL 2022, with his batting position dependent on the number of remaining overs.

Wanindu Hasaranga

Shahbaz Ahmed

Shahbaz Ahmed is a young all-rounder in Indian cricket who specializes in spin bowling. As a capped player, he is guaranteed a spot in RCB's playing XI.

Josh Hazlewoob

Josh Hazlewood is anticipated to be the only overseas pacer in RCB's playing XI, and he is expected to be fully fit for the IPL commencing on March 31.

Mohommad Siraj

Mohammad Siraj will be the main pacer for RCB in IPL, despite struggling in IPL 2022 and taking only 9 wickets in 15 matches.

Harshal Patel

Harshal Patel will co-lead RCB's pace-bowling department with Siraj. Harshal is also capable of making crucial contributions with the bat when required.
