Royal Challengers Bangalore, still eyeing an elusive Indian Premier League (IPL) title, added six new faces to its squad for the upcoming 2024 season at the auction in Dubai on Tuesday.

While RCB’s decision of acquiring the services of West Indies fast bowler Alzarri Joseph at Rs. 11.50 crore took many by surprise, it was in keeping with its strategy of building a decent pace attack as it also roped in New Zealand’s Lockie Ferguson, India’s Yash Dayal and English fast-bowling all-rounder Tom Curran.
