"Saying Goodbye To Players Is Never Easy": RCB's Director of Cricket Mo Bobat
Upon hearing that he was not retained for Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, big-hitting Australia all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has revealed about having a 30-minute discussion on a call with Royal Challengers Bengaluru's think-tank about the reasons. Now, Mo Bobat, RCB's director of cricket, has stated that the call to Maxwell was part of the franchise's commitment to nurturing strong relationships from the outset and maintaining them until the very end. "At RCB, culture isn't just about the middle of the journey, where everyone is together. It's about building strong bonds at the start and honouring them at the end. Induction and exit are key for cultural connection, and we're mindful of these phases," said Bobat in a statement issued by RCB to IANS.
