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

INDIANS ? ARE YOU AWARE OF THE PRESENT SCENARIO OF "INDIAN FOOTBALL" ?

After Kumble's exit, another Karnataka and former India international is in the coach's race

Former Indian bowling coach  Bapu Krishnarao Venkatesh Prasad  has once again expressed his desires to apply for the vacant position of coach in the Indian cricket team before the 9 July deadline. "I've not applied for the head coach's role yet and might not do so before the deadline.  However, I'm very much keen to contribute to Indian cricket as an assistant coach or a bowling coach. I can work under Ravi Shastri or Virender Sehwag or whoever becomes the head coach and bring in my experiences as an international cricketer and a former coach."  Prasad told Cricbuzz.   Prasad, who has played 33 Tests and 161 ODIs for India, is currently serving as the junior India chief selector and his three-year term expires in September this year.
