philcric Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Asking/accepting 17 Cr. for his retention was a very selfish thing to do esp. as a captain of a team which has been high profile, has a very big fan base, reached 3 finals and never won the tournament. He's been the captain for 7 years now FFS. He should be going out of his way to do whatever it takes for the benefit of the team. And what does he do? Takes extra 2 Cr. from a limited total purse. An extra 2 Cr. is peanuts for him, just an ego boost of being the most expensive player of IPL. Don't really know what's the deal with Rahul and RCB (Virat). Unless Rahul didn't want to play for RCB, there were ways for RCB to retain Rahul by adjusting price points of VK, AB and KL (ie. if Rahul asked for more than 7 Cr) ... 13,11,9 or 11,11,11 etc. But then it needed a bit of sacrifice from the captain !!

Ankit_sharma03 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 no he wont and i doubt that his franchise wud even pressurize him , he is a brand and he gets them lots of advertisment He is the captain of Indian team if he gives up people will question his self belief if franchise ask for resignation , they ll face a huge backlash from fans n advertisers it can even affect his personal perfomances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ankit_sharma03 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Who should be next captain? They dnt even have some one good for the job in the team, ABDV is pretty much the same as kohli is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trichromatic Posted April 28, 2018 Author Share Posted April 28, 2018 He won't. His brand value is very important. Playing just as batsman isn't enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beetle Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Playing just as batsman isn't enough? He is too big a name to play just as a player under someone else. I may be wrong . Besides I don't think he can take such decisions alone. He has a team of managers ,PR people + wife who are involved in his controllable career moves.

Zero_Unit Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 idealy he should quit captaincy for RBC and play solo as a batsmen but than again who in the team looks like a captain to you guys? AB could be an option but the rest are just there to fill up the spot. From a business point of view, RCB might end up as a bottom feeder but the money they make from the advertisers/sponsors, they could care less. Virat is definitely the face of that team.

Seriously, Virat is turning out more like Afridi rather than sachin in term of star value, only good thing is he performs with the bat to back it up. Having grudges against player, playing a team based on his marketing in mind rather than team's need. You know your team is in wrong hands when bunty ji have more power in team selection than say selectors. UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, he didn't captain 7 years, but 5 years. 2013-2017. Reached one final in 2016. The other 2 finals were under Kumble (2009) and Vettori (2011).

philcric Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 As critical as we are of his IPL captaincy, i'd love to see him come back to delhi and captain daredevils. He's a local, he's the only one that can lift the franchise and get them into the playoffs. But i don't think theres any pressure from the owners, they're happy with the team and kohli seems pretty comfortable captaining RCB I think it'd be better for both Delhi and Bangalore. It's been 10 years as player and 5 years as captain. We are done with him. We'd like to see new leadership and some Bangalore boys playing for us, a few among Rahul, Agarwal, Nair, Uthappa, Gowtham, Gopal, Pandey.
