AB de Villiers’ IPL Auction Wishlist for RCB
With Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, and Yash Dayal as their only retentions, RCB faces a big challenge. While these three players are talented, the team seems to lack the core strength needed to dominate the season. Fortunately, they have a massive INR 83 Cr to spend at the IPL Auction, taking place in Jeddah on November 24-25. But who should they target?
ABD’s Dream Team
According to AB de Villiers—a legend in RCB’s history—there are a few names RCB should focus on to build a winning squad. On his YouTube channel, he shared that RCB should go all out for Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravi Ashwin, two spinners who know the game like the back of their hands. With Chahal’s experience at RCB and Ashwin’s strategic prowess, these two could be a perfect spin duo.
ABD’s Top 4 Choices for RCB:
- Yuzvendra Chahal – RCB veteran and top spinner
- Kagiso Rabada – South African pacer with raw power
- Bhuvneshwar Kumar – Dependable Indian pacer with strong IPL experience
- Ravi Ashwin – Tactically sound off-spinner
ABD emphasized, “I’d almost spend the entire purse on these four. They’re seasoned, street-smart, and they understand the Chinnaswamy Stadium’s quirks.”
ABD’s Strategy: Make Chinnaswamy a Fortress
ABD stressed that RCB needs players who “know how to handle the Chinnaswamy Stadium’s unique challenges.” The stadium has short boundaries and can be high-scoring, so bowlers like Chahal and Ashwin, who have experience here, are invaluable. With Rabada’s speed and Bhuvi’s swing, RCB could have a deadly attack.
