“I didn’t want to come to RCB”: the great revelation on Rajat Patidar’s franchise’s ‘broken word’

Rajat Patidar, who leads the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, visited the 2022 season, when he was ignored by the franchise, which would be called only as a change of injury. Patidar also confessed that delivering the captain by the unique virate Kohli before IPL 2025 put pressure on him, but the legendary supporting words calmed him. Patidar became one of the RCB’s moderate main basis this season, and Southern made 239 runs in 11 matches for targeting the title of the first men’s first men.

Patidar, RCB Podcast, “I have a message you need to be ready (in front of the mega auction for the IPL 2022) … We will choose you. I hope I would have another chance (to play for RCB). But I wasn’t chosen in the mega auction. I was a little sad,” Patidar said in an RCB Podcast.

However, the 31 -year -old Madhya Pradesh cricketist did not have to wait for a long time to wear RCB colors again as one of his state friends were injured. But Patidar wasn’t really willing to go back to Bengaluru, knowing that he would have the opportunity to play in a series full of stars.

“I started playing in my local matches in Indore () (after not selected at the auction). Then I got a call to our choice instead of Luvnith Sisodia, who was injured.

Patidar, who took Madhya Pradesh to the 2024-25 Syed Mushtaq Ali cup final, said, “I wasn’t angry. If he didn’t choose me (during the auction), then I wouldn’t take it (I don’t play).

The reins of a side with iconic Kohli put pressure on Patidar, but the support of the star dough gave him confidence.

“There are too many (big players) in the team. Virat Kohli is a very big player, how do you do it under him.

Patidar, “I knew I had full support. As I said, this is a learning for me, this is an opportunity for me. So I will learn as much as it can. Because no one has experiences and ideas in every role – as an individual and captain, Pat Patidar said.

RCB captain Patidar was introduced as one of the most memorable days and Kohli’dan record from the day of the “completely empty” said he said.

“I saw him (Kohli) (Kohli) since I started watching TV, IPL, in the field, in the Indian team … To get that thing he has done for many years (captain plaque) … And he gives me with his own hands.

“When he gave it to me, I was a little worried about how to get it. I was completely empty about what to do. He told me to hold it.
