Bowlers: Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, Yash Dayal
Bhuvneshwar Kumar doesn't have the same pace or accuracy as he used to during his days in the Indian team. However, he uses his experience to compensate. Alongside Hazlewood, the right-arm seamer forms a fantastic combination.
Josh Hazlewood was arguably the best bowler on show in IPL 2026. He took wickets not just in the powerplay, but also towards the back end of the innings. The Australian seamer finished with 22 wickets from 12 matches at an average of 17.55, being one of the biggest reasons behind RCB's title win.
Yash Dayal complemented Bhuvneshwar and Hazlewood to a tee. He bowled the difficult overs and came up trumps more often than not. The left-arm seamer picked up 13 wickets in 15 matches at an average of 36.15.
RCB Predicted Playing XI for IPL 2026
Phil Salt, Virat Kohli, Devdutt Padikkal, Rajat Patidar (C), Tim David, Jitesh Sharma (WK), Romario Shepherd, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, Yash Dayal
