IPL 2023: 3 uncapped players RCB could have signed in auction
Will Jacks and Reece Topley were the most notable signings by the RCB in the IPL 2023 auction.
1. Sanvir Singh
Sanvir Singh is a medium-pace-bowling all-rounder, who was snapped up by the Sunrisers at his base price of INR 20 Lakh. He only bowls in the 120s and early 130s but can swing the new ball. His batting is his main asset, and he has a reputation for being a power hitter, which is why it was surprising that he received only a base price bid.
In the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2022, he scored 119 runs in 5 innings and had a strike rate of 205.17. He is a traditional finisher, and his main hitting zones are in front of the wicket, and doesn’t usually play innovative shots. The Punjab player also has a good pull shot in his kitty, which is a requirement for a finisher.
RCB did buy a domestic finisher and pace-bowling all-rounder in the form of Manoj Bhandage, but it certainly wouldn’t have hurt them to buy another, given that Sanvir was quite affordable.
