philcric Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Not basing on just this game, but he's absolute tosh as an IPL team captain. The team always under performs as a unit. Players seem to be play under undue pressure and generally play below their potential, esp. the younger ones. Auction is generally not great. Being selfish and not taking decisions in the best interests of the team. Taking extra 2 Cr for himself, letting go of Rahul which could have been easily avoided. Now, his company Wrogn is one of the team sponsors. This squad may not be great, but there's definitely enough to work with. Early days but it's looking like another washout season for RCB. Any good captain like Warner, Kane, Dhoni, Rohit, Gambhir etc. would be able to get much more out of this team.

velu Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 absolutely positively agree poor team building by him so far .. also kohli trust in top heavy batting is extremely risky as well .. beetle, sscomp32, Under_Score and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moochad Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Jadhav and Rahul are the big losses for them. Two International quality players they let go. Jadhav is one of the better CSK players and Rahul is the best KXIP player. He overpays his buddies like Yuvraj. He also tries to increase his fanbase by buying medicore players like Ali to placate his padosi fans. If they still had those two, their Indian contingent would be one of the strongest: Rahul, Kohli, Jadhav, Chahal, Yadav, Patel, Siraj If they had those 7, they would only need their internationals to fill in the gaps, AB + 3 others.

vvvslaxman Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Yes. Players perform well below their potential when they play for RCB. They always had this "top heavy" syndrome where as some teams didn't really have a heavy top or heavy middle still they performed. raki05, sscomp32, beetle and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelig Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Not sure about worst ever. RCB were once captained by KP. They lost six on the trot or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoL don't know how top heavy you can get with Pappu Patel as your opener. The problem lies elsewhere. SK_IH and velu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedheat Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 He should be dropped from t20i captaincy with immediate effect. That format is to groom youngsters and kohi is least suitable for that. Mosher, beetle, velu and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is too big a player for franchise like Delhi,Royals,Hyderabad,Punjab plus don't see Rcb releasing him due to business reasons and brand value.

Zelig Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I remember Baz having a torrid time as captain of KKR. There was mutiny within the squad due to Dada (?) and the players were not inclined to play for him. Poor guy. sscomp32 and Switchblade 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosher Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 (edited) Atleast earlier RCB used to entertain with its batting with either Gayle, Kohli or AB having a good game. Now its not even top heavy. Useless player like Parthiv is the opener and the other opener is a revolving door. AB doesn't look the same batsman. Let's not even talk about the bowling. Piss poor team selections and captaincy from Kohli. Edited March 31, 2019 by Mosher speedheat, philcric, Adi BB and 5 others 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
