Ankit_sharma03 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 IPL Bidding war among all teams I hope KKR takes him if they still have Bmac, need someone to tell him to play his natural attacking game. Also Hope they keep him away from captaincy Vk1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowl_out Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Looks like only Mumbai captaincy is certain. Every other team could have a new captain next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puneet28 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Carrying the team only by himself. He looked dejected this season. RCB might target him.

Ideally Rahul should try to fight it out for another year with a couple of.good acquisitions for the mide order, but with 2 new teams and an auction coming up, this is the best time to move, to cash in on that breathtaking knock in his most recent recent match.

Also, he is at peak of his career now. Did reasonbly well in tests vs England, opener in T20WC and WK in ODIs. He has never been such secure in terms of his position in playing XI. With 4 seasons of 500+ runs, he is sure shot of 15 crores in next auction. In the current generation of players (after Kohli and Rohit), he has maximum fan-following.Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk nevada 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Understandable. Will be in line to be RCB captain only if Kohli agrees to play under him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By reiterating his desire to play for RCB, he is trying to force the owners to pick him. Unless they want whitewash the money, the owners would be stupid to pay anywhere close to what they are paying Kohli currently. Despite giving himself the best possible batting spot, he can't muster anything of impact. He has nothing to offer his team. He neither has the skill or temperament to come in late and ace tough chases nor can he play a match turning blinder up top. He is washed up, he is done in T20. The sane thing to do for him would be to just skip the format altogether and try to salvage his test and ODI career. His 2016 level form is not going to come back, ever. coffee_rules, diga, sorak and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about the money and the brand. And that's the main reason why he will find it extremely difficult to adjust to playing under any other captain except someone senior to him. The Aus series win under Rahane followed by WTC final loss upset all his calculations. Hence all the drama about quitting captaincy and all, nothing but a desperate measure to cling onto captaincy in at least one format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dhoni isnt scoring runs either but he has the Midas touch in captaincy and his players love and respect.him. He can work magic with an average team and make ordinary or old players play like absolute champs. Fans also love him and the opposition respects him the world over. Kohli is an inverse of all this.
