One of the key strengths of every successful team over the years has been their X-Factor players. Be it Andre Russell for Kolkata Knight Riders, Hardik Pandya for Mumbai Indians, Albie Morkel for Chennai Super Kings all played the role of game-changers were the reason for their team's huge success in this league.

Over the year's RCB has been looking for a middle-order batsman who can potentially be their X-Factor player, and they might have found one in Shimron Hetmyer. He can do what Glenn Maxwell did with Kings XI Punjab in the 2014 edition of IPL. If Shimron can get going in this IPL, a maiden title could be in sight for RCB.

Like always, the presence of an experienced leg-spinner in Yuzvendra Chahal improves the bowling strength of the team. But also watch out for the 16-year old crorepati Prayas Ray Barman and his sharp leg-breaks.
