#4 Royal Challengers Bangalore - Tim Southee

Royal Challengers Bangalore made some big changes in their squad ahead of IPL 2019 in a bid to win their maiden IPL title. But it all went in vain as RCB, once again, ended up in the bottom half of the table. While the team failed in all the departments, the bowling in particular looked completely out of place. RCB tried to ring in changes but to no success. Tim Southee was one of those RCB bowlers who were taken apart by the opposition batsmen.
The Kiwi speedster is known for his calm head and for delivering under pressure. He is also known for his strong death-bowling skills. But unfortunately, Southee was not at his best in IPL 2019. The 30-year-old played just 3 games where he took a solitary wicket while giving away runs at a poor economy of 13.11. RCB has a history of being ruthless when it comes to dropping players and it looks like Tim Southee will have to bear the brunt of it this time around.
