IPL victory requires Virat Kohli to depart RCB: In the IPL 2024 Eliminator on Wednesday, Virat Kohli and Royal Challengers Bengaluru suffered a crushing defeat against Rajasthan Royals, leaving them unhappy once more. Since the IPL’s start, Kohli and RCB have not taken home an IPL championship, and the wait goes on.
After the game, England great Kevin Pietersen gave senior captain Virat Kohli some advise, believing that in order for him to win an IPL championship, he should sign with a different team.
“I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the greatest players in other sports have left their clubs to pursue success in other arenas. Even after he has made numerous attempts, won the Orange Cap, and accomplished a great deal, the franchise still fails. I see the value he adds to the team’s brand and its commercial potential. However, Virat Kohli merits an award. He ought to be a member of a team that can assist him in winning the trophy,” he stated on Star Sports.
Pietersen also emphasized Kohli’s Delhi origins and recommended that he follow in the footsteps of Harry Kane, David Beckham, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Lionel Messi. “I truly believe Delhi should be the location. It’s imperative that Virat travel to Delhi. I am aware that Virat owns a house in Delhi, so he is free to travel or spend most of his time at home. His family is young. He is able to stay longer there. He’s a youngster from Delhi. Why is he unable to return? Delhi is just as in need as Bengaluru “added the speaker.
“I believe Virat should give it some serious attention. Harry Kane recently left Spurs and joined Bayern Munich, while Beckham, Ronaldo, and Messi all departed,” the speaker said.
In 19 overs, Rajasthan Royals, chasing 173, reached 174/6. Yashasvi Jaiswal hit the highest score in the match, scoring 45 runs in 30 balls. Mohammed Siraj, meanwhile, claimed two wickets for the RCB.
RCB was first reduced to 172/8 in 20 overs by Rajat Patidar (34), Virat Kohli (33) and Mahipal Lomror (32). With numbers of 3/44, Avesh Khan returned for RR’s bowling department. In Qualifier 2, RR will now play Sunrisers Hyderabad in an attempt to defeat KKR and advance to the IPL 2024 final.
