IPL 2022: 5 players that can help RCB win the title

Josh Hazlewood will look to lead RCB's bowling attack with impressive performances

IPL 2022 will soon enter its 15th season. Among the 10 franchises that will be competing in the event, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) deserve special mention. They will, yet again, be looking to end their IPL trophy drought.

Despite fielding one of the strongest teams in the IPL consistently, success in the tournament has managed to evade the IPL team repeatedly. Even star batsmen such as AB de Villiers, Virat Kohli, and Shane Watson have been unable to get this side over the line and to the ultimate prize.

Former IPL captain Virat Kohli has frequently expressed his desire to win the tournament and has also noted his frustration at being unable to do so.

The team seemed to be well on track to finally accomplishing this goal during the last year's edition of the tournament. They were the team to beat during the first half of the season and were a red-hot favourite.

Things would, however, fall apart in the second half of the season. They struggled to show the same form they had in the earlier stages and eventually finished third in the league table, behind eventual champions Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals.

This year, however, sees a dramatic change in the make-up of the squad, with signifcant changes having been made.
