Hopes Rest on Virat Kohli to save sinking RCB
Having played seven encounters this season, RCB has managed to win just one game, placing the side in 10th place. In the game against RR, despite Kohli’s century, RCB’s bowlers were punished, resulting in an easy win for RR. In the upcoming clash, all hope surely rests on Virat Kohli. With 361 runs in just seven matches, he is currently in a purple patch. Undoubtedly, he is a key player for them.
Not getting enough support from other batters
