We examine the background, biography, age and career journey of RCB debutant Saurav Chauhan, who replaced Anuj Rawat in their game against Rajasthan Royals
During the IPL 2024 match against Rajasthan on Saturday, at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, Saurav Chauhan, a 23-year-old batsman hailing from Gujarat, made his debut for Bangalore, filling in for Anuj Rawat in the RCB playing XI. Skipper Faf du Plessis displayed confidence in the young talent’s capability to shine in the esteemed tournament.
Saurav, despite the significant opportunity, failed to impress the fans, managing only 9 runs from 6 deliveries before Chahal dismissed him. Fans speculate that Anuj will soon reclaim his spot in the starting eleven due to Saurav’s underwhelming performance.
