Rajata Patidar will enter with his head held high, as for the first time in the history of the IPL, RCB will be starting off as the defending champions. The team remained very consistent under him the last time, and they would be hoping for a similar stance this time as well.
IPL-winning RCB skipper Rajat Patidar made some quirky choices in his recent 'This or That' challenge ahead of the upcoming IPL season in 2026. His most controversial picks came in the 'IPL legends' edition of the challenge, where he picked several unexpected names over the others.
Patidar stuck with the former Australian legendary left-handed batter who opened the innings in the IPL for teams like Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians, and won several titles with them. He also picked Hussey over one of IPL's most legendary openers and the finest of captains, Gautam Gambhir.
Who is Rajat Patidar's final choice in the 'This or That' challenge?
Rajat Patidar's ultimate choice in the 'This or That' challenge was, however, not Mr. Cricket, as he showed loyalty towards the Challengers by picking two of their most legendary players over anyone else.
However, his ultimate choice to end the 'This or That' challenge was none other than former RCB explosive batter AB de Villiers. ABD had played for years in the RCB camp and was largely one of three big pillars for them in the IPL.
