#1 Virat Kohli
The biggest setback to the Royal Challengers Bangalore will be the unavailability of their captain and best batsman Virat Kohli who has not yet recovered from the shoulder injury which he sustained during the 3rd Test match against Australia in Ranchi.
"The Indian captain will undergo rehabilitation after sustaining an injury to his right shoulder. His recovery will be assessed in the second week of April to determine an exact return to play date for IPL 2017," the BCCI said in a release.
His loss will be a big blow to RCB which is already reeling with the injury to KL Rahul and also with the vague nature of Ab de Villiers' injury.
