IPL 2021: Predicting team-wise positions at the end of league stage in UAE

2. Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)

The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) side produced a splendid performance in the 2021 edition of the IPL. The Virat Kohli-led side got its act together and posted 5 wins in the 7 matches that they played. The ‘Men in Red’ are occupying 3rd place in the points table at the time of suspension.

And, if the tournament moves to the UAE, it will not be a huge cause of concern for the RCB side. They produced an excellent performance in the 13th IPL edition in the UAE and finished the league stage at 4th place. RCB have the services of Glenn Maxwell and Kyle Jamieson. They have quality players like Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, and Devdutt Padikkal in the batting department who can also take the game away from the opposition.

Also, the likes of Harshal Patel and Mohammed Siraj have been good with the ball for RCB. They also have the wily Yuzvendra Chahal in their side as well, who can exploit the slow tracks on offer in the UAE. The Virat Kohli-led side will mostly finish at the 2nd place in the points table at the end of the league stages and are one of the contenders to lift the IPL trophy this year.
