Parvez Rasool:
The first preference to replace Ravichandran Ashwin, a domestic name, should ideally go to another domestic name. In this case, J&K’s Parvez Rasool certainly fulfils the requirements. The 28-year-old is quite orthodox as compared to Ashwin but can be very economical. The off-spinner was a part of the Royal Challengers squad in the 2016 season before he was released and went unsold. What sets him apart from all other names in the list is his batting ability. Rasool is a proven batsman just like Ashwin and has a first class batting average of 38.87. His all-round capability will be a huge asset for RPSG.
