Just like the Indian team, the door to winning the trophy has opened for RCB. This curse is broken for India in 2024 and for RCB in 2025.

 

Bad times for Chumbai and CSguy supporters.

17 dry seasons and now back-to back titles.

 

Upar walah jab deta hai, chappar faad ke deta hai. 

 

Hoping for same for PBKs and DC. 

 

RCB think tank is to be credited for this. Took some hard calls

Yes, it was a decent knock but not the best and he wasn't the MoM. It was our pacers who pulled it out of fire and were the MVPs. We're aligned there.

We are not aligned.

 

It was a good knock, the reason he got MOTM is that even though the bowlers did well under pressure their overall wickets tally in that match was not impressive. Virats 76 was nearly 45 % of the runs we scored.

It depends on mega auctions.

Dubeys performance wasn’t comparable to the other two.

 

Axar was instrumental and so was Virat, we definitely wouldn’t have scored 176 if we were 40/4. Its a simple fact. 

 

We wouldn't have but Kohli was extra cautious. He got to his 50 off 48 deliveries and that too when he started off with 15 off 6 deliveries. That means he scored the next 35 runs (from 15 to 50) off 42 deliveries. I understand that he had to be cautious but he went too cautious. In T20s you still have to back yourself and should've scored at least say 52 off those 42 deliveries instead of 35. That 15-20 runs is what would've put the match beyond SA.

 

And this is a consistent pattern. In 2022 WT20 he scored 50 off 40 deliveries on a patta at Adelaide, and 50 off 63 deliveries in 2023 ODI WC. If you're the star batter you've to take charge of the match and own it. Kohli hasn't been able to. He hasn't been bad but he hasn't been the difference maker or great either. At the end of the day when you look at why we under-achieved at intl level, it has been due to our batters and Kohli as one of the star batters has to take the blame.
