Legendary spinner doubts Iyer's place in the starting XI—Padikkal's in the mix!
Venkatesh Iyer might have to warm the bench for RCB if the legendary spinner’s hunch is anything to go by. With Devdutt Padikkal riding the wave of last season’s success, Iyer could find himself on the outside looking in. Talk about a dodgy start!
Sure, Iyer's got the talent, but when your competition is a key player from a title-winning squad, chances are you’ll be sipping drinks instead of smashing sixes. RCB’s got a winning formula, and they’re not about to mess with it just to squeeze in a new face.
As the season heats up, all eyes will be on how RCB shapes their lineup. Will they stick with proven stars or gamble on fresh talent? Let’s hope Iyer's not just another village cricketer lost in the shuffle!
