IPL 2026: Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s strongest predicted XI against Punjab Kings
As the IPL comes towards the end, teams that have had good tournaments usually have a well-settled playing XI by now, something RCB can say about themselves.
Middle Order: Rajat Patidar (C), Jitesh Sharma (WK), Krunal Pandya, Tim David, Venkatesh Iyer
RCB made a drastic change to their middle order during their win over the Kolkata Knight Riders, replacing Romario Shepherd with Venkatesh Iyer. However, they did not have a good time against the 2024 champions, with Rajat Patidar and Tim David scoring just 11 and two runs, respectively. Patidar has had a good season otherwise, scoring 337 runs at a strike-rate of 192.57.
