What has always made RCB a force to reckon with is their batting line up. However, it’s this season when it has all actually clicked for the franchise. Both Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers have come out firing on all cylinders to occupy the top two positions in the list of highest run scorers.

Although Chris Gayle has blown hot and cold with his batting form, one can’t deny the psychological edge he gives his team over the opponents whenever he walks out to bat. With a relatively unremarkable IPL for him, except for a few knocks and controversies, the big Jamaican must be itching to leave his mark on the 2016 edition with a big one in the finals.
