IPL 2025: Will RCB’s strategy prove weak again? Aakash Chopra raised big questions

One of the most talked about franchises of IPL, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), is in the headlines this time too for its auction strategy. The team has a huge fan following on social media, but till date it has not been able to fulfill its dream of winning the IPL trophy. Like every season, this time too RCB took some decisions in the mega auction, which have surprised cricket experts and fans.

What did Aakash Chopra say?

Former Team India cricketer and famous cricket analyst Aakash Chopra has raised questions on RCB’s auction strategy. He said,
“RCB follows its old ways every time. They do not have any high-profile batsman except Virat Kohli. This time they had a chance to buy big names like Rishabh Pant, KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer, but they could not capitalize on it. RCB repeatedly misses such opportunities, which exposes their weakness.”

Big names, big expectations, but empty handed

RCB fans expect titles from their team every season. However, despite having big names, the team has so far not been able to create a balanced team combination that can take the trophy. This time too, after the auction, there is a lack of batting in the team.

Will RCB live up to the expectations of its fans in 2025, or will it prove to be another disappointing season? The answer will be found only on the exciting field of IPL!
