Washington Sundar's good performance for India will please the RCB team management

RCB has always been famous for its star-studded batting line-up. They have always prepared batting pitches at their home ground, Chinnaswamy Stadium.

This has resulted in some high-scoring matches, which is always a spectacle for the crowd, but in the process, more often than not, they have dented their bowling.

RCB bowlers have always taken a beating in the IPL, and thus, they have struggled to win an IPL title.

But this year, RCB has made a conscious effort of strengthening its bowling attack. They retained Yuzvendra Chahal using the RTM card and bought the latest bowling sensation, Washington Sundar.

With Sundar and Chahal in the ranks, their spin-bowling looks sorted. In the pace department, RCB seems to have picked up the whole of KKR's bowling-attack that decimated them for a meagre 49 runs last year.

Chris Woakes, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Umesh Yadav and Colin de Grandhomme, who bowled out RCB for 49 runs last year, will be part of RCB's bowling attack.

They also have young Indian fast bowlers in Mohd Siraj, Kulwant Khejroliya, Aniket Choudhary and Navdeep Saini in the side which makes them a force to reckon in this IPL.
