In this article, we will discuss the Royal Challengers Bangalore’s top 3 contenders to win the orange cap in IPL 2024. Royal Challengers Bengaluru have always been a batting-heavy side. This season is no different for the Bengaluru-based franchise. Once again, they have a phenomenal batting unit and they will be a force to reckon with. Along with the established stars the franchise has included some upcoming talents as well.
RCB fans are set to see some of the best batting displays if all these big names stay in form throughout the season. In the past RCB batters have won the orange cap and we might see another batter from RCB donning the orange cap this season. Let us take a look at 3 players from Royal Challengers Bengaluru who can emerge as orange cap holders in IPL 2024.
Virat Kohli
There can be no debate over this name. The former India captain is the ultimate performer in the Indian Premier League. He has been the most consistent batter in the history of this league. Although he has not played cricket for the last couple of months, Virat does not need much time to get into the groove. It will be no surprise if he once again ends up as the leading run-scorer in IPL this season.
Faf du Plessis
The RCB skipper is also one of the top contenders to win the orange cap this season. He was not in good form sometime back but in the last leg of SA20, he found his rhythm back and is looking set to ablaze the stage in IPL 2024. Since joining RCB he has taken the responsibility of scoring runs and being the leader of the batting unit along with Virat Kohli. If he performs the way he has done in the last couple of seasons, then the orange cap might not be too far from him.
Cameron Green
A less talked about name but he is a proper package. The young Australian all-rounder Cameron Green has a new home in the IPL this season. Royal Challengers Bangalore have shown faith in the Australian. Cameron Green is in some fine form and he is coming right after a successful series with the bat in New Zealand. His current form makes him one of the batters to watch out for in IPL 2024.
