Royal Challengers Bengaluru have been completely off-color this season. The team has played cricket below their potential and has lost six out of their first seven matches.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru were beaten by 25 runs by Sunrisers Hyderabad in their recent encounter. Their bowler gave away 287 runs in their 20-over, which in turn became the highest score in IPL history.
However, this performance from RCB did not go well with former World Cup winner Kris Shrikanth, who criticized the team for their performance.
In his YouTube video, Kris Shrikanth said, “Reece Topley is getting smashed. Lockie Ferguson was getting smashed. He has not done well in the IPL. He has traveled from Kolkata to Bengaluru. Will Jacks has been their best bowler.”
Kris Shrikanth further added, “Better, they play 11 batters. Ask Faf du Plessis to bowl two overs. Give Cameron Green 4 overs. I think Virat Kohli wouldn’t have conceded this many had he bowled four overs. Virat Kohli is a decent bowler. At one stage, I felt very bad for Virat Kohli, who was just watching the balls fly out of the stadium. He came out angry when he walked out to bat. Head was smashing them, Klaasen, after that. But Abdul Samad’s knock was the final nail in the coffin.”
Royal Challengers Bangalore will play their next game against KKR on April 21.
