According to the news coming from sources, RCB franchise will not sign a contract with star cricketer Virat Kohli in IPL 2025. Apart from this, 5 other players including Faf du Plessis, who captained this team last season, is also going to be removed. The other names that may be released include Glenn Maxwell, Mohammad Siraj, Tom Curran and Alzari Joseph.
When it comes to the best batter of modern day cricket, Kohli’s name will come at the top. This player has scored a lot of runs in all three formats of Test, ODI and T20. At the same time, the right-handed batsman has made so many records, which is not going to be easy for any young player to break. However, questions are often raised about his strike rate in limited overs cricket.
Apart from this, in the recently played ICC T20 World Cup 2024, Virat Kohli flopped in the entire tournament except the final match. In such a situation, it would not be wrong to say that after T20 International, his career in IPL can also end. RCB can release him in the 17th edition of the Indian Premier League.
These 5 players will also be released from the team
A mega auction will be organized before IPL 2025. In this, bids will be placed on many great players of the world. Also, all the teams can retain only 3 players. That is, they will have to release the remaining 22 players of their team. This means that RCB will also have to discharge Faf du Plessis, Glenn Maxwell, Mohammed Siraj, Tom Curran, Alzarri Joseph from the team.
