IPL 2019: SWOT analysis of the Royal Challengers Bangalore squad

Weakness

Ashish Nehra is the bowling coach of RCB.

The main weakness of RCB is there death bowling. This is not a new problem that has emerged as for the past few years, RCB is known as a side with a phenomenal batting line-up with poor death bowlers.

Last year, Mohammed Siraj did a decent job at the end of the season but he is still a work in progress. Moreover, the thing that adds to the agony is that the team has no one to support him.

Umesh Yadav cannot be considered as an option as he is far from being economical. Tim Southee or Nathan Coulter-Nile can be a good option but the problem with them is their inconsistency.

However, if Siraj, alongside Southee or Coulter-Nile, solves the death bowling woos of RCB then it would be a big relief for the red army as apart from these the Kohli-led side looks pretty much settled.
