The disappointing news is that the Royal Challengers Bangalore will once again be without their key overseas players namely Glenn Maxwell, Jason Behrendorff and Josh Hazlewood.

All these three Australian players will only be available after 6 April, 2022 due to national commitments. This means that Bangalore is very much likely to go with the same combination alongwith the likes of skipper Faf du Plessis, Sherfane Rutherford, David Wiley and Wanindu Hasaranga being the four foreign players.

The Royal Challengers Bangalore also have the option of Kiwi explosive batsman Finn Allen. They can also include the experienced Siddarth Kaul in the playing 11 for Akash Deep who struggled to bowl especially at the death.
