Batting icon Virat Kohli was extremely critical of his players in the aftermath of Royal Challengers Bangalore’s (RCB) demoralising defeat to former champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the recently concluded encounter of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on Wednesday. A misfiring KKR side led by stand-in skipper Nitish Rana outplayed Kohli’s RCB side in match No.36 of the IPL 2023 at the famous M. Chinnaswamy Stadium.
Issuing an explosive statement after RCB suffered their fourth defeat of the new season at home, a dejected Kohli openly admitted that Royal Challengers Bangalore handed the game to the visitors. Kohli, who captained RCB for the third time in a row this season, blamed Bangalore’s sloppy fielding and soft dismissals for their recent defeat to the two-time champions in the 16th season of the cash-rich league.
“To be honest we handed over the game to them. We deserved to lose. We weren’t professional enough. We bowled well but fielding was not up to standard. This was a freebie handed over to them. In the field, we dropped two chances, that cost us 25-30 runs. When batting, we set us ourselves up very well, but then (suffered) four-five soft dismissals,” Kohli said at the post-match presentation.
