David & Salt available till final (June 3). Shepherd may leave early for WI duty. Ngidi departs May 25 for SA's WTC final vs Australia.
England's Bethell available only for 2 matches before WI ODIs. Hazlewood also expected to return, boosting RCB's pace attack.

Resume campaign vs KKR (May 17), face SRH (May 23) & LSG (May 27). Chinnaswamy's batting paradise favors their explosive lineup.
David's 180+ SR, Salt's explosive starts & Shepherd's finishing make RCB most dangerous batting unit for crucial matches.
