RCB former Director Mike Hesson finally breaks silence after drop from franchise

The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) franchise, which has already started preparing for the IPL 2024, has done a major surgery in the team. RCB former Director Mike Hesson finally breaks silence after drop from franchise.

RCB has dropped Mike Hesson and Sanjay Bangar, who were previously the team’s head coach and director of cricket operations, and Andy Flower, who is a former cricketer of the Zimbabwe team and former coach of the England team, has been selected to replace them.

In fact, the tenure of Mike Hesson and Sanjay Bangar in RCB is ending this September. These two were also ready to sign another contract with the team. But the RCB franchise did not want to continue the contract of these two. Thus the relationship of these two with RCB has ended.

Hesson, who has now posted a long post on his Instagram account, thanked the RCB fans and the owners for giving them the opportunity. The 48-year-old shared an emotional message on Instagram to bid goodbye to the team after his contract ended on Friday, August 4. The veteran credited the franchise for making it to three playoffs in the last four editions of the tournament but was gutted as they missed out on their maiden IPL trophy.

He wrote in Instagram: “Although we were able to make good progress making 3 playoffs in the last 4 seasons, we were not able to win the elusive trophy that I like so many players, support staff, and the amazing fans so dearly wanted.”

“Although disappointed to be leaving RCB I have some very fond memories working with great people both on and off the park.”  “I would like to thank the management for the opportunity and wish RCB and its new coaching team the very best. Lastly to the amazing RCB fans, you are unwavering in your support and passion for the team and made me feel at home, for that I thank you.
