IPL mega auction is to be held at the end of this year. Before this mega auction, all the teams announced their retention list. Royal Challengers Bangalore has retained Rajat Patidar, Virat Kohli, and Yash Dayal this time. RCB has not retained its captain Faf du Plessis this time. After this, it was believed that Virat Kohli could be seen captaining once again in IPL 2025. Now RCB’s cricket director Mo Bobat has given a big statement on these reports.
After the announcement of IPL 2025 retention, Bobat told Jio Cinema, “If anyone is disappointed with my words, then I am sorry for that. We have not yet taken any decision regarding the captaincy of RCB. We have kept the options open. We have decided so far that we will not retain Faf. Faf has performed well for RCB, but we want to keep all options open in the auction.”
Earlier reports said that Virat Kohli himself is also keen to captain RCB. However, he has not given any official statement about this yet.
On the question of retaining the trio of Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, and Yash Dayal before the new season, RCB head coach Andy Flower said, “We are very excited about Yash Dayal. He is constantly progressing in his career. He is a left-arm fast bowler. He can swing in both directions.” At the same time, talking about Rajat Patidar, he said, “Rajat Patidar is an important member of our team. He can bat in any order. This is very important for a team. We hope that he will perform well in the coming season as well.”
