RCB has included many new players in the team this time.
Ashwin also praised RCB’s auction strategy and said that the franchise has been very cautious in its approach and this was evident in the mega auction. This time in the two-day event held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, RCB managed to field players like Tim David, Josh Hazlewood, Phil Salt, Liam Livingston and Jitesh Sharma. However, the franchise did not utilize the right-to-match card option for players like Mohammed Siraj, Glenn Maxwell, Faf du Plessis and Will Jacques.
RCB decided to wait- Ashwin
Ashwin said, ‘I personally feel that the auction was very good for him. He kept his balance and waited. Many teams earned crores of rupees in this auction and started bidding big on the players in the beginning itself. But RCB decided to wait despite a lot of money being owed. Who did they think I needed? that’s what I want. My entire team is important. My 12 or 14 players are important.
