NEW DELHI: Royal Challengers Bengaluru face an imminent challenge to address their bowling vulnerabilities following a disappointing performance in their IPL 2024 opener against Chennai Super Kings. As they prepare to take on a confident Punjab Kings in their upcoming encounter at the formidable M Chinnaswamy Stadium, RCB's focus shifts to rectifying their shortcomings on the field.
In their previous match, RCB's bowlers struggled to find their rhythm, contributing to their six-wicket defeat against CSK. The pacers, Mohammed Siraj, Alzarri Joseph, and Yash Dayal, faced criticism for their ineffective use of the short-pitch ball strategy, resulting in a lack of control over line and length.
