Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will be hoping to turn around their fortunes from last season in the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024).

After qualifying for the playoffs in IPL 2021 and IPL 2022, RCB witnessed a dip last year, finishing at 6th. Thus in a bid to have a rejuvenated outing, the management has revamped the squad for the new season. RCB, looking for a bowling overhaul, let go of their key bowlers like Harshal Patel, Josh Hazelwood and Wanindu Hasranga ahead of the mini-auction. Lockie Fergusson, Alazarri Joseph, Tom Curran, Yash Dayal have been the new inclusions to RCB's pace battery. However, former India cricketer turned commentator Aakash Chopra highlighted a major chink in the armour for RCB. While the pace attack has been replenished, their spin bowling department looks depleted without any talismanic spinner.

When I start counting the bowlers, I feel - where are the spinners? Why don't you buy spinners? Among spinners, they have taken Mayank Dagar from Hyderabad. Mayank Dagar is alright but Shahbaz Ahmed was also doing as good a job as Mayank Dagar will do." The former India opener added that RCB don't seem to have a potent spinner apart from Karn Sharma.
