IPL 2024: Why is RCB team not getting success for 16 years?

16 seasons of IPL have passed and the 17th season has started. If any team has disappointed its fans the most in these last 16 seasons, then it is Royal Challengers Bangalore, which has not been able to win the title even once despite having many excellent players. The team has had a bad start in the 17th season also. Everyone is trying to know the reason for the failure of this team, but now 6-time IPL winner Ambati Rayudu has revealed the big reason behind it, which is being seen in this season also.

Had to face defeat in three matches

Bengaluru has lost 3 out of the first 4 matches of IPL 2024. He has won only one match. In such a situation, once again the question is arising whether this team will remain empty handed for another season? If this happens again, what will be the reason this time? Are the reasons for failure this time also the same as before? Remember this team has reached the finals only 3 times and lost every time. Is it difficult to even reach the finals?

Why couldn't RCB win for the last 16 years?

However, Bengaluru have often faced criticism for their poor bowling. Apart from this, poor record at his home ground M Chinnaswamy is also considered to be the reason for this, but veteran batsman Rayudu, who has won IPL 6 times with Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings, has given a reason which rarely happens. First of all, pay attention.. While talking on Star Sports show, Rayudu said that for this, senior international batsmen should not play under pressure.

Such situation in 16 seasons

Rayudu raised the question that the young Indian batsmen of the team often stay at the crease in pressure situations, while senior players or international batsmen, who should play in pressure situations, get out instead of playing in these conditions. And sat in the dressing room. Rayudu also said that this is not the problem of this season, but the situation has been the same for the last 16 seasons. Rayudu criticized RCB, saying that international players leave after playing well and such teams never win.

How much power is there in this statement of Rayudu?

In retrospect, this can be considered to some extent but it is not completely true. For a long time, legends like AB de Villiers were batting at number four or five for RCB, who took the team out of pressure situations on most of the occasions. Apart from this, an experienced batsman like Yuvraj was also a part of the middle order of this team but he did not get success. Glenn Maxwell bats at number four in the current team, while Cameron Green has played at number five before moving to number three, while Dinesh Karthik has extensive experience in international cricket.

other way round

In the title season of Gujarat Titans, domestic batsmen like Rahul Tewatia, Abhinav Manohar were playing the role of finishers, while for Mumbai too, in the initial days, Hardik Pandya and then Krunal Pandya, who were not part of international cricket, played the role. Time. However, he also got good support from Kieron Pollard. Despite this, Rayudu's point cannot be completely ignored, because batting in the top order in T20 cricket is not very difficult and in such a situation, the option of fielding youngsters in the top-4 and experienced batsmen in the lower-middle should be given. . ,
