The Royal Challengers Bengaluru squad hopes to get off to a strong start in the inaugural IPL 2024 encounter against the defending champion Chennai Super Kings. The RCB squad’s first title drought was ended earlier this month when the women’s side, led by Smriti Mandhana, won the Women’s Premier League title in Delhi. The men’s goal now is to deliver a similar performance and end the IPL trophy drought.
The team, which features batting legends like Glenn Maxwell, Faf du Plessis, and Virat Kohli, is optimistic ahead of the curtain-raiser match in Chennai. The Indian dafabet Premier League’s official account posted a video of Maxwell imitating Virat Kohli during a net session. Maxwell tried to imitate Kohli’s motions and smashes while positioned behind him.
The future success of RCB rests once more on the shoulders of its outstanding players; with a formidable squad that includes players like du Plessis, Kohli, Maxwell, Cameron Green, Rajat Patidar, and Dinesh Karthik, their batting unit appears to be stronger than ever.
Before the IPL auction or rummy best, the club parted ways with Josh Hazlewood and Wanindu Hasaranga, but it’s not certain if their replacements can fill the void. Their bowling attack lacks the same assurance as a result.
Mohammed Siraj is at the head of the bowling attack, which includes international pacers Lockie Ferguson, Reece Topley, and Alzarri Joseph along with Akash Deep, who just made his Test series debut for India against England.
There haven’t been any competitive matches for Virat Kohli since the T20I series against Afghanistan earlier in January. Rather than compete in the five-match Test series against Betway Login, he opted to be with his wife, Anushka Sharma, following the birth of their second child, Akaay.
