IPL 2025: “He on Virat Kohli …” Robin Uthappa told that Rajat Patidar will get these challenges under captaincy

Royal Challengers Bangalore has made Rajat Patidar its captain for IPL 2025. Bengaluru has not yet won the IPL title even once and the Patidar will try to end the drought of the victory of their title this time. At the same time, former Indian team player Robin Uthappa believes that Rajat Patidar will depend on Virat Kohli to a large extent and will have to compete with Kohli’s superstardam. Apart from this, this time Akshar Patel has made Delhi Capitals its captain. Rajat Patidar and Akshar Patel will be seen captaining the IPL for the first time.

Lines in better position than Patidar

Speaking to the media before the start of the IPL, Robin Uthappa said, “I think the letters between Akshar Patel and Rajat Patidar will be in a better position, honestly, because with the new team, even with the new team, there are still many well-known faces. The same is with the silver, but the silver will have to struggle with Virat Kohli’s superstardum, which is present in that team. Will be very dependent on captaincy skills. “

Uthappa further said, “But I think the silver is in a good position to be able to take RCB forward. I am really excited for teams like RCB, KKR (who have Ajinkya Rahane) and Delhi, because they have new captains and offer a new opportunity for these new captains to take forward the legacy of each team.”

Very good performance in domestic cricket

Rajat Patidar may not have the experience of captaincy in the IPL, but he has shown the skill of his captaincy in the domestic circuit. Patidar, leading Madhya Pradesh in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, had traveled to the finals.

Regarding the captaincy of Patidar, Uthappa said, “In the case of RCB, I think he has to find out his leadership manner due to being on top of RCB with silver. He has done well with leadership in domestic cricket. But as far as RCB is concerned, they have to turn it into performance again.”

RCB has a new fast bowling form with Bhubaneswar Kumar and Rasikh Salaam as well as Yash Dayal and Josh Hazlewood, along with Lungi Engidi and Nuwan Tushara. Uthappa, who won the IPL with Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders, feels that Akshar and Patidar need to prepare a way to succeed in their home grounds, especially in M ​​Chinnaswamy Stadium, traditionally helps the batsmen.
