RCB Leaning On Experienced Players Brought Better Decision-making Under Pressure: Bangar
Universe Boss Chris Gayle: Sanjay Bangar, the former coach of Royal Challengers Bengaluru, said the franchise leaning on picking experienced players brought resilience and better decision-making under pressure, which in turn made the difference in the side winning IPL 2025.
At the Narendra Modi Stadium on Tuesday night, RCB beat Punjab Kings by six runs in the final to finally win a long-awaited IPL title for the first time. It also meant that the talismanic Virat Kohli finally became an IPL winner after losing three previous finals in 2009, 2011 and 2016 respectively.
Ahead of the auction for 2025 season, apart from retaining Kohli, captain Rajat Patidar and pacer Yash Dayal, RCB had brought in Devdutt Padikkal, Jitesh Sharma, Krunal Pandya, Phil Salt, Josh Hazlewood, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Liam Livingstone, and Tim David among others, which meant they brought in much-needed international experience and covered all bases for the franchise to finally win the championship.
