IPL 2021: Aakash Chopra Picks His Playing XIs For RCB vs RR Tie

Former Team India cricketer Aakash Chopra has picked his ideal playing XI for the upcoming game between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Dubai. While RCB will look to consolidate their position in the top four of the points table while RR will be desperate to secure two points to keep themselves floating for a playoff spot.

Going into this game, Aakash Chopra feels RCB would need to make just one change to their playing XI for the clash against the Rajasthan side. Chopra stated that Dan Christian does not add a lot of value to the side, and could be replaced with Sri Lankan seamer Dushmantha Chameera.

The cricketer-turned-commentator is confident that Devdutt Padikkal will hit the strides soon and a big knock in round the corner.
