Aniket Choudhary is easily one of the best left-arm pacers in India at present. He has good pace and can clock speeds in excess of 135 kph. Due to his height, he can also extract bounce and trouble opposition batsmen. In addition, he has ability to move the ball both ways and has a good mix of cutters and slower balls.

He has had a phenomenal domestic season for Rajasthan and performed exceedingly well in the Ranji Trophy and Syed Musthaq Ali Trophy. In the recently concluded Mushtaq Ali tournament, he picked up 7 wickets in 5 games at a strike rate of 15.4. He had a brilliant economy rate of 6.22, which is impressive for someone who bowls in the powerplay and at the death.

In his T20 career, he has picked up 54 wickets in 44 games at a strike rate of 17.7 and has an economy rate of 7.39. RCB's Indian pace bowlers were off-color for most of the tournament and nobody was able to support Navdeep Saini. In such a scenario, having Choudhary in their team might have proved to be helpful.
