The 11th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) has reached its business end now as most of the teams will have to witness some crunch game in the last week of the league stages of the IPL 2018. One of those crunch games will be played between the two teams who can be termed as rivals in terms of the players they have who were the part of the opposite franchise, Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in Indore.

While RCB needs to win their all the remaining 3 matches to be in contention for playoffs qualification, KXIP needs to win just two out of their remaining three games in order to qualify for the playoffs.  The last time these two locked horns with each other, RCN thrashed Punjab in Bangalore. However, there is no doubt about the fact that both the teams do have some surprise packages in their respective squads who can single-handedly take the game away from any opposition. Let us have a look at 5 such players from both the teams:

During the game against SRH, Mohammad Siraj was the pick of the bowlers for RCB. Siraj was introduced into the attack for the first time in the last over of the powerplay. Picking up the wicket of Shikhar Dhawan (13), he made an impression in his first over itself. His last over was his most productive one where he dismissed Yusuf Pathan (12) and Wriddhiman Saha (8). He ended up with bowling figures of 4-0-25-3.
