"He scored a century the last time" - Aakash Chopra on Virat Kohli ahead of SRH vs RCB IPL 2024 clash
Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra has picked Virat Kohli as the player to watch out for from the RCB side during their upcoming IPL 2024 match against SRH.
He pointed out that Kohli hit a fine century last year when he played at this venue and felt his contribution would be crucial to RCB's success this time as well. Previewing the upcoming IPL 2024 clash on his YouTube channel, Chopra said:
"The most prominent player for that (playing to win) is Virat Kohli. He scored a century the last time he played against this team at this ground. Virat Kohli will be my first player in focus. He got out to a very controversial decision in the last match. One thing I have learned is that you need to respect the laws."
From the RCB bowling attack, Chopra named Lockie Ferguson as the player to watch out for.
"I am slightly scared to pick any bowler against Hyderabad. However, if Bangalore have to do well, some bowler will have to do well. I am going with Lockie Ferguson. He got hit a lot in the first over last time but then he made a comeback against KKR. So I am expecting him to play here and do well," Aakash Chopra added.
