Royal Challengers Bangalore

Virat Kohli-led RCB team did a big purge of their squad, releasing a host of players including Dale Steyn, all-rounders Colin de Grandhomme, Marcus Stoinis and Nathan Coulter-Nile given how expensive they were both on and off the field. They now have just two overseas players in their squad and have opened up a lot of spots for more performers to be bought in the upcoming auction.
