#2 Washington Sundar should be given an opportunity in place of Pawan Negi

Washington Sundar has warmed the bench this season and a player of his talent should have been given an opportunity long back. RCB have struggled bowling in the power play because despite having two world-class spinners in Yuzvendra Chahal and Moeen Ali, the side doesn't have a spinner who can bowl in the pressure overs and Sundar provides that and much more.

The talented all-rounder is an experienced T20 player and has bowled really well during the power play for India. RCB's pacers haven't been able to pick up the early wickets and Sundar can choke the batsman with his tight lines and put the pressure on them to score runs off the other bowlers. Negi hasn't done too much wrong but isn't really needed by the side and after the blitzkrieg from Hardik Pandya in the previous match, he'll be low on confidence.

Sundar is a good batsman and is very effective during the power play and can even be sent out as a pinch-hitting opener. At this stage of the tournament, RCB have nothing to lose and can experiment freely and they need to bring in Sundar.
