IPL XI cheaper than Ben Stokes

Aniket Choudhary (Royal Challengers Bangalore - INR 2 crore)

Before India's Test series against Australia, Aniket Choudhary was called up to the squad to give the Indian batsman some practice ahead of a tour in which they will face off against Mitchell Starc. In an exclusive interview to Sportskeeda, Aniket even mentioned that Starc was his idol and now he will look to fill the big shoes of Starc at RCB.

The left-arm pacer admitted that the only batsman in the Indian side that he couldn't dismiss throughout the sessions was Virat Kohli and even admitted that he would love to play for RCB before the auction. Now he will not only get to live his dream but also won't have to face the proposition of dismissing Virat Kohli. Whether the 27-year-old can fill Starc's shoes only time will tell, for now though, he can live his dream and play in his maiden IPL.
