Royal Challengers Bangalore IPL Betting Odds
Royal Challengers Bangalore’s betting odds is 8.0, making them one of the top teams to win the IPL 2023 trophy. Historically speaking, RCB is one of the good teams, and this year they will strike the right balance with Faf du Plessis leading the tem.
RCB have qualified for the playoffs seven times and have been runners-up on three different occasions. With the team overhaul in the IPL players auction in 2023, it seems that fans and the Royal Challengers Bangalore Betting market will see the team put up a promising performance on the pitch. RCB has made intelligent buys at the auction table to balance the absence of stalwarts like AB de Villiers and Yuzvendra Chahal. RCB has set the opening combination with Faf du Plessis and Virat Kohli. If Glenn Maxwell repeats his past performance streak, the RCB IPL cup rate will improve further for the 2023 edition.
Besides players like Virat Kohli, Dinesh Karthik, Mohammed Siraj, and Harshal Patel, there isn’t much to expect from RCB. However, if Kohli can make his bat work, expect the entire team’s confidence to be high. RCB has picked up the Kiwi lad Finn Allen and invested in bowling backup with David Willey.
Royal Challengers Bangalore IPL Betting Tips
- Captain of RCB Faf du Plessis, Virat Kohli, and Glenn Maxwell will be the front-runners for Royal Challengers Bangalore Betting market.
- Harshal Patel, the wicket-taker of RCB squad, is the bettors' favorite pick. His bounce and pace variations, specifically in death overs, are impressive.
- Glenn Maxwell and Wanindu Hasaranga are the other key players to watch out for. It will be interesting to see how the Sri Lankan uses his unorthodox leg-spin bowling style.
