5 released players who might be bought by the same team at relatively low price

#2 Brendon McCullum (Stint at Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2018)

Brendon McCullum, the fiery batsman for New Zealand, is one of the releases made by RCB. The release wasn't apparent as McCullum didn't have the worst of IPL 2018. The right-hander amassed 127 runs at an average of 21.16 and a strike-rate of 144.31. Moreover, having already traded Quinton de Kock, McCullum's axing caught a lot of eyes.

The most preferred reason for McCullum's release could be his sorry form in the current scheme of T20 cricket. Post-IPL 2018 period had been the least productive for McCullum as he failed to perform in APL 2018. Nevertheless, the New-Zealander still has a lot to offer with his overpowering batting skills.

Hence, Brendon could be the one whom RCB might buy back at a proportionately lower price while filling their vacant opening slot after having traded Quinton de Kock to Mumbai Indians. McCullum, by any means, wouldn't be a bad addition for RCB. Moreover, if it comes at a reasonable price, it is all profit for RCB.
