#1 Nicholas Pooran
Some might say that it is a surprising choice, but given that the RCB side has only one designated wicket-keeper in Parthiv Patel, it won't be a bad idea to choose a keeper in their side. The West Indian Nicholas Pooran recently struck a half-century in a T20I against India and could be on the selection radar.
The youngest player ever to play in the CPL, he can provide depth to the middle-order apart from donning the gloves behind the wicket.
Since RCB already have Colin de Grandhomme and Nathan Coulter-Nile to play the medium-pace all-rounder role, they might as well beef up their wicket-keeping column, given that Quinton de Kock has been released.
He has played 78 T20s so far but is known for his hard-hitting. At the age of 23, he is one of the upcoming names in West Indies cricket who can make an impact.
