Renowned cricket expert Akash Chopra has said that the current situation of the Royal Challengers Bangalore team is very bad.
All the teams competed to build the strongest team in the 2022 IPL series and selected the players they needed.
The Royal Challengers Bangalore team retained only Maxwell, Virat Kohli and Mohammad Siraj in their squad for the 2022 IPL series, so it was expected that the Bangalore team would select new players without bidding for players who had already played for the Bangalore team in the 2022 IPL series.
But the Bangalore team paid crores of players who had already played in the team like Herschelle Patel and Hasaranga and added to the team for which the Bangalore team could have saved up to Rs 5 crore if it had retained one of them. The Bangalore team does not know why they were dropped and then rejoined the team. The Bangalore team’s action has turned memes into material on social media, such as ‘Cotton bag may have been in cotton’.
In this situation, some cricket experts are saying that the Bangalore team is not in a good position to complete the 2022 IPL series.
In that regard, former Indian cricketer and cricket commentator Akash Chopra has questioned on his YouTube channel who would be the fourth batsman to play for the Bangalore team.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Akash Chopra said, “Bangalore have acquired West Indies player Rutherford for the 2022 IPL series, who can play in the lower middle order. The question now is who will be the fourth batsman to play for Bangalore, with both Duplessis and Virat Kohli as the opening batsmen. They will be followed by Maxwell in third place, but there are no experienced players to play in fourth place, so Bangalore will have to field players like Anuj Rawat, Dinesh Karthik and Sabash Ahmed. I don’t know if it will be a strong team if the Bangalore team does that. Another mistake made by Bangalore was that the experienced Indian team did not select spinners, ”said Akash Chopra.
