RCB did a huge favour to MI: Aakash Chopra. Cameron Green play only one season of IPL, scoring 452 runs in 16 matches and also has six wickets to his name.
Former Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya has been the buzz of the town after deciding to join the Mumbai Indians for the IPL 2024. After a few of good years as a captain and a player. The Rohit Sharma-led team express interest in bringing the all-rounder back for the next season. The process became tough due to the franchise’s lack of funds.
They had to release certain players in order for the deal to go through. Which is when Royal Challengers Bangalore express interest in signing ace all-rounder Cameron Green.

Cameron Green is the IPL’s second highest-paid cricketer, yet RCB opted to bring him in.
Former cricketer Aakash Chopra analyze the scenario and conclude that RCB did MI a tremendous favor. Since the five-time winners would not have pulled up Pandya’s deal without their assistance. He further state that had Mumbai release Green to create place for Pandya, RCB might have sign him from the auction. Chopra, on the other hand, praised MI for making this agreement possible.
“They (RCB) did Mumbai a huge favor because the Hardik deal would not have happen if this deal had not happen.” Things abruptly alter. Stopping that (Hardik’s) transaction by not doing this agreement might not have been a terrible idea. I’m looking at it from Bangalore’s perspective, not Mumbai’s.
“They (MI) would have let him go. Would you have paid more than 17.5 crores for Cameron Green if he had been released? If you had more than Rs 40 crore and want to acquire Green in the auction, you could have done so. “Well done, Mumbai Indians,” Chopra commented on his YouTube channel.
Mumbai, on the other hand, has INR 17.75 crore. While RCB has INR 23.25 crore to spend in the upcoming IPL mini-auction, which is set to take place on December 19 in Dubai.
