'Beg Yuzvendra Chahal to come back': Robin Uthappa to RCB as IPL 2024 Playoff chances hang by a thread

Hindustan Times  

With a seventh defeat in IPL 2024, Royal Challengers Bengaluru's playoff chances are next to nil. Yuzvendra Chahal, IPL's highest wicket-taker was released by RCB ahead of IPL 2022. Chahal's absence is being felt by RCB as the leg-spinner is pretty much unstoppable for Rajasthan Royals, having taken 60 wickets from 28 matches – 27 in 202ht2, 21 last year and 12 wickets from 7 games this season. Uthappa called out RCB's questionable decision-making in terms of retaining players, and urged the franchise to bring back Chahal come what may if they are to win the IPL going forward. RCB's loss is others' gain Basically, the point Uthappa is trying to make is how RCB's losses have proven to be other teams' gains, something the franchise needs to study deeper to break this pattern.
