#2 Marcus Stoinis

For a while now, Royal Challengers Bangalore have been in need a fast bowling all-rounder who deliver consistently in both departments. To that end, they had signed the Australian all-rounder Marcus Stoinis in IPL 2019 during the trade window.
The decision seemed to have worked in their favour as Stoinis had a decent outing in the previous season. He got a chance to be a part of the Bold Army’s match squad in 10 matches, in which he smashed 211 runs at an average of 52.75 and a strike rate of 135.25.
Stoinis got two wickets with the help of his right-arm pace in IPL 2019. His best bowling figures were 1/13 while his economy rate was 8.70.

As Hesson mentioned, RCB let him go purely because of his high price. It is quite probable, therefore, that the franchise will consider buying him back at a lower price in the upcoming auction.
