KL Rahul To Jos Buttler: 7 Players RCB Can Target In The IPL 2025 Mega Auction - Check List Here

With the IPL 2025 mega auction just around the corner, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) is gearing up to make strategic additions to its squad. The franchise, which has been chasing its first-ever IPL trophy, is likely to focus on strengthening key areas to build a formidable team. Here’s a look at 7 players RCB might target in the upcoming auction:

Mohammad Shami

1/7
Mohammad Shami

RCB has often struggled with death bowling, and India’s premier fast bowler, Mohammad Shami, could be the solution. Shami’s ability to swing the new ball and deliver pinpoint yorkers at the death would address one of RCB’s long-standing concerns. His experience and skills would add balance to their pace attack.

Yuzvendra Chahal

Yuzvendra Chahal

A former RCB star, Chahal is one of the most successful spinners in IPL history. Bringing him back would strengthen RCB’s spin attack, especially on spin-friendly pitches. Chahal’s familiarity with the Chinnaswamy Stadium and his knack for picking up crucial wickets could make him a valuable asset.

Rishabh Pant

3/7
Rishabh Pant

DC released Pant earlier in the IPL 2025 retentions and now Rishabh Pant the dynamic wicketkeeper-batter, is available and he could prove to be a game-changer for RCB. As currently RCB has no wicketkeeper and he could prove to be the biggest buy for RCB. 

Jos Buttler

4/7
Jos Buttler

Jos Buttler was released by Rajasthan Royals and it would be a dream signing for RCB. Buttler's ability to take down any bowling attack at the top of the order would significantly bolster RCB’s batting. His experience and aggressive approach could provide the perfect start to RCB’s innings, making him an ideal opening partner alongside Virat Kohli.

KL Rahul

5/7

LSG released KL Rahul now RCB could look to bring the Karnataka native back to his home franchise. Rahul’s consistency and leadership experience would add immense value to the squad. He could serve as a versatile player, fitting into the middle order or opening as needed.

Liam Livingstone

6/7
Liam Livingstone

The hard-hitting English all-rounder is known for his explosive batting and handy spin bowling. Livingstone's versatility as a finisher and a part-time bowler makes him an ideal T20 player. His aggressive style would fit perfectly into RCB’s attacking brand of cricket.

Rachin Ravindra

7/7
Rachin Ravindra

The New Zealand all-rounder has a strong connection to Bengaluru his parents used to live in Bangalore. Rachin Ravindra’s ability to adapt his gameplay to match situations makes him a valuable asset. RCB has often struggled with players who can adjust their batting accordingly. His inclusion would not only strengthen their line-up but also add much-needed flexibility.
