On Wednesday, the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 saw a demoralizing defeat for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the hands of former champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). Batting icon and RCB captain, Virat Kohli, was extremely critical of his team’s performance in the aftermath of the match. Kohli blamed the defeat on Bangalore’s sloppy fielding and soft dismissals, issuing an explosive statement that admitted RCB had handed the game to the visitors.
Despite Kohli’s fighting knock of 54 off 37 balls, RCB only managed to muster 179-8 while chasing KKR’s gigantic total of 200 in 20 overs. This was RCB’s fourth defeat of the new season, and Kohli’s third time captaining the team in a row.
It was a misfiring KKR side, led by stand-in skipper Nitish Rana, that outplayed Kohli’s RCB side in match No.36 of the IPL 2023 at the famous M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Kohli’s frustration was palpable, and his criticism of his players was harsh but necessary. The team will need to regroup and work on their fielding and batting if they hope to turn their season around.
