Virat Kohli has been one of the few positives in an otherwise blow hot, blow cold campaign of Royal Challengers Bengaluru in IPL 2024. The former Indian cricket team captain has already scored a ton and two half-centuries in six matches to lead the run-scoring charts. However, that hasn't meant that Virat Kohli has gone about without getting criticised. He has a strike-rate of 141.77 and often plays the 'anchor' role for RCB.
With results not going their way, Mumbai Indians continue to make headlines for the wrong reasons. Hardik Pandya's return to the Mumbai Indians, that too in the capacity of captain, was expected to lift the team's morale but the result has been the opposite. Rohit Sharma's exit as captain left a bitter taste in the mouths of fans while Hardik continues to be booed at every ground he goes. But, after MI suffered a defeat at the hands of Chennai Super Kings on Sunday, Hardik found not just his captaincy but his bowling and batting skills being questioned.
Mumbai Indians' 20-run defeat against Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 clash on Saturday has triggered a plethora of doubts in the cricketing spectrum. Hardik Pandya, who has been in the line of fire since taking over the role of MI's skipper, has been struggling both with the bat and the ball. With the T20 World Cup 2024 set to be held right after the conclusion of the IPL, doubts have started to arise over Hardik's place in the team.
It was a tough day to be a Royal Challengers Bengaluru fan on Monday. Facing SunRisers Hyderabad at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, the Faf du Plessis led side conceded 287 in 20 overs - the most in IPL's history. Though Dinesh Karthik, Virat Kohli, and Du Plessis played entertaining knocks, chasing 288 was always going to be a tough task. Ultimately, RCB fell short by 25 runs and slumped to their fifth straight loss in the IPL 2024. With every loss, RCB is going farther away from a playoff spot. The team is currently placed last among 10 teams.
A few days after a highly entertaining IPL 2024 game between Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, a strange claim went viral on social media.

Multiple users on social media platform X claimed that Srinath tampered with the coin by flipping the sides while picking it up.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Australia all-rounder Glenn Maxwell has decided to take an indefinite break from the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 campaign. Maxwell revealed the news as he spoke to media during the press conference after RCB's bitter defeat against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Monday night. Maxwell, who has courted plenty of criticism owing to his poor form with the bat, wasn't part of the XI against SRH, with Will Jacks taking his place. After the game, Maxwell explained that he asked skipper Faf du Plessis to try someone else himself.
IPL 2024 Points Table:Royal Challengers Bengaluru slumped to their sixth loss in seven matches and as a result, the road to IPL 2024 playoffs got much tougher for the Faf Du Plessis-led side. RCB were outplayed completely by Sunrisers Hyderabad, who registered the highest team total in the history of the competition on Monday. Travis Head slammed a brilliant century to take SRH to a record 287/3 in 20 overs before Pat Cummins took three wickets to guide his team to victory. Following the loss, RCB remained last in the points table with just 2 points and a horrible NRR (Net Run Rate) of -1.185. That means RCB have no other choice but win all of their remaining matches in IPL 2024 and hope for other results to go their way if they want to qualify for the playoffs.
