Have RCB cured their Achilles Heel???

Since 2008, my loyalties might have changed more than a couple times when it comes to various interests

but not for a single time when you talk of the biggest money spinner in cricket. Ever since the first edition of the IPL began in 2008, the one team that got me cheering for them has been RCB. Initially for the likes of Dravid and Kumble and now of course, King Kohli and his brigade. With Abu Nechim playing in their jersey till last year, there was that added Assamese sentiment too

Their batting has always been their mainstay and the crowdpuller and bowling their Achilles heel. But with some really interesting and calculated signings this year, they hope to find a cure to their Achilles Heel. Tymal Mills is a proven death bowler and it would be really interesting to see Aniket Chaudhary bowl. A left arm tall fast bowler can create awkward angles that can unsettle the best in the world. I personally feel they are a much balanced unit this year. Chahal was anyway their go to bowler last year. But then it has been proven that what looks on paper has never been the same on the field.

My first choice RCB 11 would be the following –

Chris Gayle
KL Rahul
Virat Kohli (C)
AB De Villiers
Shane Watson
Kedar Jadhav (WK)
Stuart Binny
Pawan Negi
Yuzvendra Chahal
Aniket Chaudhary
Thymal Mills

ARSENAL 2017/18: NEW SEASON, SAME OLD ARSENE WENGER?

It’s Groundhog Day as Arsenal disappointed yet again at the beginning of a new season as did the boss, Arsene Wenger with some questionable decision making. The Gunners extended their ignominious record of losing one of the two opening league games for the 8 th season in a row. After securing a record 7 th F.A Cup with Arsenal as manager, Arsene Wenger signed on for two more years, despite much publicised calls from the Gooner fan-base for his sacking (including flying banners by plane).

Arsenal also added to its roster, Bosnian international Sead Kolasinac on a free transfer from Schalke Arsenal embarked on a pre-season tour of Asia and Oceania where they played against Bayern Munich and English Champions Chelsea.
