Royal Challengers Bangalore Team of IPL 2019
Virat Kohli is the captain of the Royal Challengers Bangalore team and his price in IPL 2019 is 17 crores. RCB's performance in IPL 2018 was very poor. In the 2018 season of the Indian Premium League, Royal Challengers Bangalore played 14 matches and here the team won 6 matches and lost 8 matches. RCB captain Virat Kohli would definitely be looking to correct his team's poor record in IPL 2019.
The home ground of RCB is Chennaswamy Stadium in Bangalore and the current head coach of the team is Gary Christen. Ashish Nehra is associated with the team as bowling coach. The captain of RCB is Virat Kohli.
A company named United Spirit has been associated as the owner of the Royal Challengers team, Vijay Mallya is currently the shareholder of the team. The team was bought by Vijay Mallya in 2008 for $111.6 million from the BCCI.
In the Indian Premier League, the first match of Royal Challengers Bangalore, captained by Virat Kohli, is going to be held on March 23 with last year's winning team Chennai Super Kings, which has many big star cricketers. However, the last IPL season was nothing special for the team. In this auction, Bangalore team has invested 5 crores on all-rounder Shivam Dubey. While the team with AB de Villiers has also included foreign players like Heinrich Klaasen (5 million) and Shimron Hetmyer (4.2 million), due to which now more fun will be seen in the game.
Meanwhile, first of all, let us also tell you that before the 12th IPL auction held in Jaipur, the Bangalore team had retained only 14 players of the last season apart from Virat Kohli. This time the team has given Gurkeerat Singh Mann 5 million, Milind Kumar 20 lakh, Devdutt Padikal 2 million, Akshdeep Nath 3.6 crore, Himmat Singh 65 lakh and Prayag Ray Burman in their team for 1.5 million rupees.
The team already has batsmen like Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, Moeen Ali and Colin de Grandhomme, while Umesh Yadav, Tim Southee and Yuzvendra Chahal are also there.
It is worth noting that this time many new rules have been seen, one of which was that the players themselves change their teams, in which the star all-rounder Marcus Stonis, who played for Kings XI Punjab last time, decided to come to Bangalore. Now it will be seen whether the Bangalore team is able to win the IPL title for the first time by performing well or not.
These will be the players of Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2019
Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, Umesh Yadav, Parthiv Patel, Mohammad Siraj, Marcus Stonis, Tim Southee, Kulwant Khejroliya, Yuzvendra Chahal, Nathan Coulter-Nile, Moeen Ali, Himmat Singh, Colin de Grandhomme, Shivam Dube, Milind Kumar, Prayag Ray Burman , Devdutt Pradeepik, Simran Hetmyer, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Heinrich Klaasen and Navdeep Saini.
