This season has started off on a customarily poor note for Royal Challengers Bengaluru as the team lost three out of the four games that they have played thus far.
To make matters worse for RCB, the women’s side had won the IPL earlier last month and this added pressure on the men’s side to win the trophy. The comparison is that the women’s side won the trophy within two years of the start of WPL, but the men’s side, despite having superstars hasn’t won the trophy in the last 16 years.
A defeat in today’s game(5th game for RCB) would potentially mean that the season is pretty much done and dusted for them.
So, today’s game with Rajasthan Royals is of quintessential importance for RCB and the talismanic player of the side, Virat Kohli.
Kohli and his men must avoid humiliation at all costs today as a defeat to Rajasthan would pretty much end their campaign. But defeating a high-flying Rajasthan in their home ground is a task and a half for RCB, we must say. The game will start at 7:30 PM today.
