RCB vs CSK Dream11 Match Prediction Choices For Captain And Vice-Captain
Virat Kohli – Captain
The backbone of RCB’s batting lineup, Kohli has been in sublime form this season, amassing 443 runs at an average of 63.29 and a strike rate of 138.87. His ability to anchor innings while accelerating in the death overs makes him a prime captaincy candidate, especially at the batting-friendly Chinnaswamy Stadium.
Josh Hazlewood – Vice-captain
RCB’s leading wicket-taker with 18 scalps, Hazlewood thrives in the death overs, leveraging pinpoint yorkers and variations. His economy of under 8 and ability to dismiss key players like MS Dhoni make him a reliable vice-captaincy choice.
