IPL 2018: Predicting the starting eleven of Bangalore

No. 8: Chris Woakes

The England International will love to break some stumps

The first of the several fast bowlers RCB loaded up with, Chris Woakes was the most expensive buy made by RCB this season. The 7.4 crore acquisition was one of the destroyers of RCB's batting last year when they were bowled out for 49 runs.

Chris Woakes is one of the several all-rounders RCB have managed to purchase this season, in hopes of maintaining a fine balance between their batting and bowling. Chris Woakes is primarily a bowler but has the ability to chip in with runs when needed.
