#3 Washington Sundar– The X-factor

Every team needs a youngster to push them towards glory. While Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya played that role for Mumbai Indians last season, Mustafizur Rahman and Barinder Sran played carried out that responsibility for the Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2016.

Now, Royal Challengers Bangalore also have someone who could potentially be the X-factor and raise them to glory- Washington Sundar. The youngster has already made waves in domestic cricket and could finally have a breakthrough year with Bangalore.

Having already represented India in the international arena, he is someone with oodles of talent and ability. He is an off-spinner that can bat in the lower order. He has an average of 21 in T20s and has taken 21 wickets in 20 games at an economy rate of 6.48 and there is no reason why he cannot do a commendable job with RCB as well.
