IPL 2018: Tactical mistakes by teams which could prove costly

#3 RCB: Lack of experienced finishers

The young batsman would have to shoulder a huge responsibility this year

Royal Challengers Bangalore is a high profile team in the competition which has failed to win the tournament despite having the biggest names in their team. The team had always filled the team with star batsman who would chase any total for their team.

This year they have covered there bowling pretty well with Coulter-Nile, Southee, Umesh Yadav and Siraj along with Yuzvendra Chahal and the young sensation Washington Sundar. The problem this time for RCB is with the lack of experienced finishers.

The team would open the innings with McCullum and De Kock and Kohli would probably drop to one down followed by De Villiers. With that being the case the entire responsibility of finishing the innings would fall on the young shoulders of Sarfraz Khan and Washington Sundar which is too big a task for these young stars.

The solution for this would be to maybe to open with Vohra and De Kock and ask the experienced McCullum to finish the innings along with the talented Sarfraz Khan.
