In addition to expressing his faith in the Rajat Patidar-led team, former RCB and India player Mohammad Kaif stated that the Bengaluru team appears to be far more balanced than it has been in recent years. In addition to complimenting Virat Kohli‘s performances and Rajat Patidar’s leadership, the 44-year-old former India batsman also noted how important the bowlers have been to the season thus far.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will play their first match in Bengaluru when the IPL 2025 resumes on May 17. Fans and experts are rooting for the Men in Red to win the championship this year because they have had such a fantastic season thus far.
According to The Times of India, Mohammad Kaif stated, “I do believe they can win it this year because the team with the best all-around side usually has the best chance.”
When discussing RCB as a team, they have performed admirably. They have always been a batting-heavy squad, which is why I am emphasising the word “team.” However, Rajat Patidar has done an amazing job of employing his bowlers this time, limiting opponents while defending 170-180. The bowlers have given them hope that they can win, but Kohli has kept doing what he does best.
RCB during the years
One of the most well-liked teams in the IPL is RCB, which consistently has some elite players on its roster. In 2009, 2011, and 2016, the team advanced to three IPL finals but was unable to win.
With nine final four appearances, they also hold the third-most playoff appearances in the competition. The two most successful teams in the tournament right now, the Chennai Super Kings (12 times) and the Mumbai Indians (10 times), are ahead of them.
