Royal Challengers Bangalore: Chris Woakes
Ad
And now we come to the first surprise selection. While some may be slightly baffled by this selection, Chris Woakes has time and again proven to be a highly successful limited overs bowler for England, twice defending meagre totals in the last over against the highly lauded skills of CSK skipper MS Dhoni and SRH skipper Kane Williamson.
While he didn’t exactly star for KKR last season, he was part of the quartet who dismissed, ironically, Royal Challengers Bangalore for 49. He’s also coming into this season on the back of a Man of the Series award in the recent ODI series against New Zealand.
