#2 Jalaj Saxena
Saxena has been a rock in the middle-order for Madhya Pradesh in the domestic circuit and knows his way well around the wickets in India, due to his hefty experience. A canny off-spinner, he has been putting up the runs in the domestic circuit for years now.

While Saxena is different from Woakes when it comes to their skill-set, he adds real depth to their batting, which is known to narrow up a bit in the middle-order. The top-order has the likes of Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers and it is the middle-order that requires help.
Also, since Moeen Ali won't be available for the entire IPL, RCB could do with an Indian all-rounder who would not be too much of a pressure on their overseas slots. The Bangalore franchise has only two overseas slots left and can well utilize one of them for the vacant wicket-keeper slot.
