Royal Challengers Bengaluru had somewhat mixed reactions to their IPL mega-auction performance. Royal Challengers Bengaluru went into the auction with the second highest purse amongst all of the teams but instead of splashing out enormous amounts of money on one player, they decided to take a balanced approach and spent money in a balanced manner and picked up some key players for their squad. This mentality led to RCB getting mixed reactions from the fans with some saying that it was a blunder of an auction while others praised the teams approach.
