Harbhajan Singh Calls for Virat Kohli as RCB Captain to Revive Struggling Team

The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have endured a tumultuous IPL 2024 campaign, plagued by inconsistency and underwhelming performances. Despite boasting star batter Virat Kohli, the team has struggled to find its footing, languishing in the bottom half of the table.

Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh has voiced his concerns, calling for drastic measures to revive RCB's fortunes. He believes that appointing Kohli as captain would ignite a fighting spirit within the team. "Virat Kohli makes his players fight," Singh asserted. "Faf du Plessis has to play, but he's sitting out because of him. One player who makes hundreds in every league is sitting out. Make Virat Kohli captain. This team will fight and then win."

RCB captain Faf du Plessis has acknowledged the team's struggles, admitting that they have failed to maintain consistency. "We've tried to change things, but we haven't done well," he said. "It's time to make changes. We know we can turn this around."

RCB's lack of success in the IPL is a stark contrast to the dominance of teams like Rajasthan Royals and SunRisers Hyderabad. Along with Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals, RCB has been a part of the IPL since its inception in 2008, but has yet to lift the trophy.

The team's batting has been inconsistent, with only Kohli showing signs of consistency. The bowling has also been underwhelming, failing to provide the necessary support. As a result, RCB finds itself in a precarious position, facing an uphill battle to qualify for the playoffs.
