Punjab Kings have a lot of good players. However, they could not get the best out of them. It has been a while since they reached the playoffs. Now, they might have to release a lot of their current cricketers. Here, we take a look at the list of three Punjab Kings players whom RCB might target in IPL 2025 Auctions.
Note: We have considered players who are likely to be released by Punjab Kings.
1) Liam Livingstone
It is a risky call but if it comes off, RCB could have a redemption arc like Glenn Maxwell had at the franchise. Livingstone has the skills but he is yet to nail himself completely in the IPL.
With an English management at the helm, they could get the best out of the all-rounder. He can be the finisher for the side or could even operate at No.3. Henc,e he is on this list.
2) Jitesh Sharma
Jitesh Sharma is one of the Punjab Kings players whom RCB might target in IPL 2025 Auctions. RCB needs a replacement for Dinesh Karthik. It will be great if they can get a player who can bat well in the middle order.
Despite being the vice-captain, Jitesh Sharma may not be retained by PBKS. He could be a good fit at RCB with his finishing skills. His good approach against spinners will also be of great use to the side.
3) Harpreet Brar
The Punjab Kings cricketer was a target for RCB a few seasons ago. However, PBKS managed to sign him. He could be a target for RCB again.
RCB needs a spinner and there are not many good options in the market. Harpreet Brar is a decent choice and would add a lot of value to his side. Add to this, he is also a decent No.8 batter.
