IPL 2019: One fringe player from each team who can impress if given a chance

Royal Challengers Bangalore - Navdeep Saini or Moeen Ali

Moeen Ali

The Royal Challengers Bangalore have assembled a strong squad ahead of this season and they have a lot of good backup options apart from their main star players. Their overseas outfit is diverse and has players who can thrive in all kinds of situations.

One surprise from last season was that Navdeep Saini who was bought for INR 3 Crore last season didn't play a single game despite the time's pace bowling problems. This season too, with the return of Coulter-Nile and the success of Siraj and Umesh Yadav, will prevent Saini from a straight starting berth but the youngster must be provided with opportunities this season.

Moeen Ali, despite all his experience, is a fringe player for the Royal Challengers Bangalore. Ali is a versatile T20 player capable of batting in multiple positions and is a very clever bowler. He did do decent last season but will leave midway through the tournament due to the World Cup. It remains to be seen if he'll be a first-choice pick but RCB must use him before he leaves.
