Royal Challengers Bangalore is the team to reach finals most time but have not won a trophy yet, they have reached final in the Year 2009, 2011, 2016. They have the biggest fanbase then all the other IPL franchises, they have disappointed their fans the most, but their fans still support them and I am one of them, just because of one and only Virat Kohli, we can saw in the India Vs Sri Lanka pink ball test matches the fans were cheering for RCB and Virat Kohli in an Indian match that's shows love of fans for Virat Kohli and Royal challengers Bangalore.

They had retained Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell and Mohammad Siraj before the auctions but what I think that they had a average Auction they didn't did any smart buys, they had picked Faf Du plessis and have made their Captain but I think it was not a right decision he is 37 now and will play for Max next 3 years and this was the last Mega Auction according to report, they could have picked some young Indian guy like Shreyas Over or Ishan Kishan to led team for at least next 5-7 years they could have looked for long term captaincy and I think if Faf don't perform with bat or as a Captain he will be removed mid season and Glenn Maxwell will be made new Captain of the team.
Faf Du Plessis Led Royal Challengers Bangalore will be looking to qualify for playoffs they have been able to do so in last two seasons but they have lost their both ElimInator in last two IPL season, they really have a good bowling lineup consisting of Mohammad Siraj, Harshal Patel, Jos Hazlewood and Wanindu Hasaranga as a mystery bowler. But their problem is their batting lineup they all are really bad against spin bowling consisting of Virat Kohli, Faf Du Plessis and Dinesh Karthik and there will be one Indian uncapped player playing in middle order and Glenn Maxwell at 4 but problem is Maxwell will not be available for few initial games due to his marriage and Hazlewood because Cricket Australia's Policy it will be interesting to find their playing X1 for opening game.

They Got back Harshal Patel, Finn Allen back in the auction they have a good squad but their middle order lacks experience with some batters are really week against spin bowling.
Possible Playing X1 -:
Virat Kohli
Faf Du Plessis
Finn Allen
Anuj Rawat
Mahipal Lomror
Dinesh Karthik
Wanindu Hasaranga
Shahbaz Ahmed
Harshal Patel
Mohammad Siraj
Siddharth Kaul
This is playing X1 for the first match and will be changed when Australian players are available. Their middle order consisting of Indian uncapped player so they should be good against spin but still experience is less among them, they really have good batting debt with batting till at No 9 so they can start attacking from initial overs and Royal Challengers Bangalore also have really good bowling lineup and have got many variables to bowl.

Players To Watch Out for :

Virat Kohli : he has not been able to perform the way he used to perform few years ago, last two seasons have been really average for him but still in his captaincy Royal Challengers Bangalore reached playoffs. His weakness against spin has come out and teams have taken note of it. Now he is no longer Captain Of RCB and there will be no extra pressure on him as he has resigned from captaincy and now he can fully focus on his batting, he should bat in opening position so he can play pacers more rather than spinners he should look to score lot of runs.

Faf Du Plessis : he was announced as captain of Royal Challengers Bangalore in an press conference on 12th of March he was bought by team in Mega Auction for 7 crore, he was part of Chennai Super Kings the previous year and was the second highest scorer in the tournament with more than 600 runs, the RCB franchises will want him to score runs like he did last year. The problem with Faf is that he is not playing international cricket and is just playing leagues around the world, the last match that he played was in Bangladesh Premiere League a month ago and will have no match practice till the first match of RCB.

Mohammad Siraj : the rise of Mohammad Siraj started from the Year 2020, in IPL the game he played Against Kolkata Knight Riders, since then he has just evolved as a player he had make comeback to Indian white ball setup and made his Test debut against Australia in 2020. In the previous season he was very impressive, he was swinging the new Ball, was economical in middle order and was just tremendous in death overs for Royal Challengers Bangalore. Because of his performance he was retained by the franchise and they will be hoping from Siraj to take lots of wickets

ReplyDeleteBut try to look at these few things-
1.Complete the sentences with a full stop not with a comma. You have messed all the lines using commas.
2.Read each sentence twice after writing it. Cut the unnecessary words.
3.Use Google doc or any other app to write your blog. So that it will correct your grammetical errors.
4.You could translate the sentences into hindi using google translator for initial few blog. It will help you to know what exactly you have written.
5. And yeah read as many books you could. Be a great reader to become a great writer.
6. Try to use stats as well.
Anyways the blog is good. I really liked it.
And yeah, Don't you think Faf and Virat shouldn't open the innings since both of them play spin cautiously?
