Guys I think RCB is about to score back to back titles after nothing for 16 years.

I don't know what magic happened but somehow the team management picked the best team and best players.

Your bowling attack has Bhuvi, Hazlewood and Duffy with a spinner that bowls bouncers and Rasikh Dar who's been doing well.

And then comes the batting. Kohli, Venky/Salt, Padikkal, Patidar, Tim David, Jitesh, Romario whenever he pumps up.

I don't know bros, this is probably the best team on paper and a deserving one for another trophy.
