Srikanth: Know what he said about Virat Kohli and RCB’s captaincy!

Before the start of IPL 2025, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) team management made a big change and handed over the captaincy of the team to the young silver Patidar. He will replace Faf du Plessis in the team, which will now be seen playing for Delhi Capitals (DC).

However, some fans felt that Virat Kohli should have got the captaincy of the team. Prior to this, some such media reports were also revealed before the IPL mega auction, which said that Kohli is interested in captaincy. But now 36 -year -old Kohli will be seen playing as a batsman in the upcoming IPL season from the team.

On the other hand, former Indian player and 1983 World Cup winning Indian team member Chris Srikanth has given a big statement regarding this decision of RCB. Srikanth says that perhaps Kohli has decided not to captain due to more attention in batting.

Srikanth gave a big statement about Virat Kohli

Recently, through a video uploaded on his YouTube channel Cheeky Cheeka, Srikanth said- I think Virat would not have said for captaincy. He must have said that I want to focus on batting. I think all this must have happened by consulting Virat Kohli.

Srikanth further said- Rajat Patidar is a good option. He is doing well in the IPL. The good thing is that they will not have much expectations. When we appointed Dhoni as the captain of the T20 World Cup in 2007, he did not have much expectations from him and the team.

This is something similar. There are not much expectations from Rajat Patidar as a captain. He will take his own decisions. But he will definitely take advice Virat Kohli.
