The addition of left-arm pacer Parnell who has also scored 1887 runs at a strike rate of 123.65 is expected to give depth to the RCB line-up. Notably, the Bengaluru-based franchise are also waiting for the comeback of Josh Hazlewood who is recovering from his Achilles injury.
“Fearsome with the ball and fearless on the field! We don’t just call you lad Topley for nothing. Thank you for putting your body on the line and giving your 100%. We will miss you and wish you a speedy recovery, mate,” RCB tweeted for the England pacer on Thursday.
He injured his shoulder while fielding in the match against five-time champions Mumbai Indians on Sunday. In the match, the 29-year-old bowled two overs for 14 runs and one wicket.
Parnell has previously represented the Delhi Capitals and Pune Warriors in the IPL. He will be playing under the captaincy of his compatriot Proteas batsman Faf du Plessis at the RCB.
