‘RCB is Lucky’

Former Team India cricketer and current commentator Aakash Chopra, while speaking on his YouTube channel, said that RCB had released three of its special bowlers before the auction, after which they wanted an excellent bowler.

Although RCB wanted to buy Pat Cummins, it was good that RCB did not buy Pat Cummins by spending Rs 20 crores. If this had happened then the RCB team would have become very weak.

Pat Cummins would have been thrashed in a small stadium-like M Chinnaswamy. Which is not good at all for RCB. Now RCB should thank Sunrisers Hyderabad.

The Spin Bowler Will Be Missed:-

Aakash Chopra said that there is still not much depth in RCB’s bowling. Their spin bowling department is a bit weak.

Till last year, RCB had a great spin bowler like Wanindu Hasaranga. But now they do not have any quality spin bowlers except Karan Sharma.
