The IPL 2026 is knocking at the doorstep, and all franchises are likely to summon their players by this week in order to ramp up the team strategies and finalize a playing XI for the first half of the tournament that has been announced until now.
The 'This or That' challenge has been a common feature in recent times, and RCB wicket-keeper Jitesh Sharma also took up a similar round to pick the best wicket-keeper in the world. However, even before the game started, he seemed to know who to pick.
He then picked Rishabh Pant and finally got the name he was hunting for. Adam Gilchrist was his choice over the likes of South African legend Mark Boucher, his RCB mentor Dinesh Karthik, former Indian captain MS Dhoni, RCB legend AB de Villiers, and lastly, himself.

I am very fascinated by him-RCB wicket-keeper reveals his icon ahead of IPL 2026
The young Indian keeper seemed to be highly inspired by the legendary Australian, who, not always by stats but for those who have witnessed him play, would remain as one of the greatest wicket-keeper batters to have played the game of cricket.
"I think he was the keeper who showed the importance of keeping and the fact that a keeper plays attacking shots. He had turned an era in that direction at that time, which is why I'm very fascinated by him. I am a big fan of his way of batting and keeping, and I feel very happy when I sit alone and see him play," said the wicket-keeper.
