IPL 2018: One Player that each Franchise will regret losing from their last IPL Squad

Royal Challengers Bangalore- KL Rahul

Rahul is in the form of his life

Royal Challengers Bangalore retained their two most important players in Kohli and AB de Villiers for the auctions this year. In addition to these stalwarts, they also retained the young Sarfaraz Khan ahead of the like of KL Rahul, Chris Gayle, and Yuzvendra Chahal, though the latter was retained using the RTM card.

KL Rahul is one of the most talented batsmen in Indian cricket at present and is a player who is capable of playing in all the three formats. He is a great boost for any team at the top of the order.

Rahul has been in splendid form in this year's IPL as he has scored the fastest fifty in IPL history in his very first match. He continued his brilliant run scoring more than 30 in his second and third matches at a strike rate of over 200.

In contrast, RCB had to use an overseas opener in McCullum and he hasn't been as effective as Rahul for the team. An Indian opener who can keep wicket and has a strike rate of more than 150 is a captain's delight and Kohli for sure has missed a trick here.
