Veteran South African pacer Dale Steyn is set to join Royal Challengers Bangalore as a replacement for injured Australian Nathan Coulter-Nile, giving a much needed boost to the bowling department of the bottom-placed team in the IPL.


It is being that Steyn will replace Coulter-Nile, who is recovering from a back injury.

He also also played for RCB between 2008 and 2010, taking 27 wickets.
