RCB's squad for IPL 2025 has arrived, but there is suspense about it

RCB. This team has been playing IPL since the first year, but so far this team has not won the IPL title even once. It is difficult to say whether his dream will come true in next year’s IPL season, but in today’s auction, the RCB management has tried to build a very strong squad. However, even after the auction is over, the question of who will be the captain of the team next year remains. Although they have a player like Virat Kohli, it will be interesting to see if the team thinks of something else.

RCB retained these players, RTM also did

Royal Challengers Bangalore had already retained some of their players. This includes Virat Kohli for Rs 21 crore, Rajat Patidar for Rs 11 crore and Yash Dayal for Rs 5 crore. This time the team recalled only one player through RTM i.e. Right to Match Card and that is Swapnil Singh. The team has taken him back for Rs 50 lakh. The team could have RTMed a few more players, but that didn’t happen.

Spent big on Josh Hazlewood

If we talk about this year’s auction, the player on whom the team has spent the most money in two days is Josh Hazlewood. The team spent 12.5 million rupees for it. The team spent 11.5 million rupees to fill the salt. The team also had to spend Rs 11 crore for Jitesh Sharma. Team Bhuvneshwar Kumar Rs. 10 Crores 75 Lakhs have managed to get it. However, the team bought Liam Livingstone for just Rs 8 crore 75 lakh. This was a great success for the team.

The captaincy is yet to be announced

The team has covered almost all areas. From opening to middle order and from fast bowling to spin attack. But the question will be who will be the captain of the team. Earlier, Faf du Plessis was taking over the captaincy after Virat Kohli stepped down, but this time he has been dropped. He will now be seen in Delhi. In such a situation, the question in everyone’s mind is about the captaincy. Although Virat Kohli can be the captain again if he wants, the team also has the option of Phil Salt and Krunal Pandya. There is still a lot of time in the upcoming season of IPL and the team will take this decision carefully.
