RCB bowling stats vs Chennai Super Kings
IPL silverware has eluded Royal Challengers Bangalore over the years and as believed by many, the reason for that is their lackluster bowling. Team management of RCB has failed to gather an all-around attack for all the conditions. Having said that, they had some individual superstars in the bowling lineup with the likes of Yuzvendra Chahal. The leg-spinner is at the top in terms of wickets taken against CSK with 12 scalps from 11 innings.

Yuzvendra Chahal has performed against CSK in almost all the conditions and tops the chart in home, away and neutral venues. Young Indian international Navdeep Saini has been good in the limited opportunities he got but RCB would be having high hopes on him in the upcoming years.

Overall:

No Player Innings Wickets 5w 4w
1 Yuzvendra Chahal 11 12 0 0
