Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) has released its retention list. This time the franchise has retained Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar and Yash Dayal. Now RCB will be seen including the remaining players in their team in the mega auction. Interestingly, the Bengaluru team has also released its captain Faf du Plessis and now they are looking for a captain.
In the reports coming out in the media, it is being claimed that when Bangalore offered Kohli the captaincy in the next season of IPL, Kohli had refused it. However, after giving him such an offer again, he has not yet given any reply on it. Now the team’s head coach Andy Flower has given his reaction regarding this matter and from his statement it seems that Kohli is going to be seen captaining in IPL 2025.
After the release of the retention list, Flower said, “Virat Kohli is a role model and as a player he has been excellent. He is a leader who took us to the playoffs in IPL 2024. We will be looking for his leadership once again in 2025.”
