"Have To Sort Out Their Bowling": Ex-India Star's IPL 2024 Auction Tips For RCB
Ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 auction for the upcoming season, former India pacer Irfan Pathan gave tips to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) for the 17th season of the tournament. While speaking at Star Sports, Pathan said that after adding Cameron Green to the squad, RCB have solved the headache of their middle order. Further Pathan said that the Bengaluru-based franchise need to sort out their bowling attack and if they can get Sri Lankan bowler Wanindu Hasaranga at a cheap price, then it will be good for them. The 39-year-old further added options for the franchise and said that if they fail to get Hasaranga, then they can go for Mujeeb Ur Rahman. Pathan praised Mujeeb and said that he is a mystery bowler with the new ball and can make a difference in tough conditions.

"Poor Choice": Ex-Australia Star On Cameron Green's Trade To Royal Challengers Bangalore From Mumbai Indians
Former Australia spinner Brad Hogg feels while trading in Hardik Pandya was a good move from Mumbai Indians (MI), Cameron Green's move to Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) could turn out to be a poor one. MI traded in Hardik for an undisclosed fee from Gujarat Titans, while the five-time champions traded Australia all-rounder Green to RCB for a sum of Rs 17.5 crore. Hogg feels that instead of buying Green, RCB should've invested their money in improving the quality of their bowling department.
