IPL 2024: Virat Kohli to Bat at Three, Cameron Green to Open for RCB

Kohli can bat at three, followed by Patidar at four, Maxwell at five and Karthik at six.

In one of the biggest trades of IPL history, Cameron Green was traded to Royal Challengers Bangalore from Mumbai Indians. The Aussie all-rounder was great with the bat in his inaugural edition of the tournament and ended up getting traded despite that. However, with RCB, Cameron Green could find the place that would suit his batting the best.

Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis have been highly successful as the opening pair for RCB, but the franchise could move on from that and instead introduce Cameron Green as the opening batter alongside Faf in the upcoming edition of IPL. Kohli can consciously persuade his team to let him bat at three in order to start the preparation at the slot in which he plays for Team India and is expected to play in the T20 World Cup 2024.

Kohli can bat at three, followed by Patidar at four, Maxwell at five and Karthik at six. RCB would still want to find an Indian all-rounder to make their batting line-up more dynamic in the IPL 2024. Green has been successful at the opening position in T20 cricket, and he can definitely turn up the heat for Bangalore in this edition of the tournament.

However, as of now, it is all just pure speculation, and it will depend on the management of RCB to organise the batting slots for their squad in the tournament.
