Bengaluru: The most entertaining team in the Indian Premier League tournament is Royal Challengers Bangalore. RCB, which is recognized as the favorite team to win the cup in every IPL tournament, has not been able to win the cup even once. Having settled for the runner-up position 3 times, RCB is dreaming of winning the maiden IPL trophy again this time. Big blow for RCB: Top three players to be dropped from team.
Over the past few years, RCB has retained some players and released many. Some of the players who have represented RCB in the past are now likely to cross paths to win the Bengaluru Cup. Apart from Quinton de Kock, Washington Sundar and Yujuvendra Chahal, RCB are likely to pay the price further from the players they dropped. Here is the answer to your curiosity about who are those players.
West Indies explosive batsman Shimron Hetmyer, who represented Royal Challengers Bangalore, failed to utilize him properly. For RCB, Hetmyer managed to score 90 runs at an average of 18 in just 5 matches. Hetmayer, who once played at number 4 for RCB, scored 75 runs. This was Hetmyer’s highest individual score in the IPL so far. After this, Hetmayer was dropped from the RCB team.
After this, Hetmayer, who shone for Delhi Capitals, managed to get Rajasthan Royals under his wing in the 2021 player auction. Hetmayer scored 314 runs at a batting average of 39.25 in 15 matches for the Royals. RCB, abandoned by Hetmayer, is now in trouble.Most of the cricket fans do not know that Avesh Khan, who is shining for Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL tournament, made his debut in the IPL through the Royal Challengers Bangalore team.
Avesh Khan played for RCB in 2017 and scored 23 runs and took one wicket. Like Hetmyer, Avesh Khan was dropped from the team ahead of the 2019 mega auction. Avesh Khan, who joined Delhi Capitals, emerged as the second highest wicket-taker in the 2021 IPL tournament by taking 24 wickets.
After this, Avesh Khan, who joined the Lucknow Super Giants wing in the last edition of the IPL, shone by taking 18 wickets. After RCB dropped Avesh Khan, who is emerging as a lethal pacer, RBC seems to have made another blunder by dropping the right-arm pacer. Singapore-based explosive batsman Tim David represented Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 2021 IPL tournament. Tim David scored one run in just one match for RCB.
After this, RCB dropped Tim David from the team before the 2022 IPL tour. Mumbai Indians managed to rope in Tim David as a replacement for Pollard. For Mumbai, Tim David has scored 186 runs at a batting average of 37.2 in 8 matches. Tim David is taking bold steps towards becoming a good match finisher in T20 cricket. RCB has made a big mistake by dropping Tim David.
