While almost every other team has a youngster doing well, RCB is not getting that at the moment. However, they do have some youngsters on the bench who can deliver for the franchise. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of three RCB youngsters who could be included in the playing XI for the upcoming games of IPL 2024.
1) Manoj Bhandage
RCB is lacking a good finisher and also an all-rounder. Manoj Bhandage is someone who can step up for both these roles.
Yes, he is young and might need time but Manoj has the skills to do that. He is a left-hander and if needed, he can also be used in the middle overs against spin.
2) Akash Deep
Akash Deep had a strong start to his India career. Interestingly, he is failing to make it to the playing XI at RCB. Considering he is in good form, it is high time that the management gets him into the playing XI.
Akash is someone who can open the bowling and also operate in the middle overs. He seems to have got some variations for the deathovers, as well. Therefore, he is a likely candidate to play in the forthcoming games.
3) Will Jacks
Will Jacks is one of the RCB youngsters who could be included in the playing XI for the upcoming games. It is surprising that Will Jacks is yet to make his debut in the IPL despite doing well in so many other T20 leagues. Especially with the likes of Cameron Green underperforming, Will Jacks deserves a chance soon.
He is a brute hitter of the ball and can play in various slots in the batting order. Plus, he is a wily right-arm off-spinner, which could help the spin department of RCB. Hence, Will Jacks could be included in the playing XI for the coming matches.
