It was a tough day to be a Royal Challengers Bengaluru fan on Monday. Facing SunRisers Hyderabad at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, the Faf du Plessis led side conceded 287 in 20 overs – the most in IPL’s history. Though Dinesh Karthik, Virat Kohli, and Du Plessis played entertaining knocks, chasing 288 was always going to be a tough task. Ultimately, RCB fell short by 25 runs and slumped to their fifth straight loss in the IPL 2024. With every loss, RCB is going farther away from a playoff spot. The team is currently placed last among 10 teams.RCB are one of the three teams apart from Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings which have been playing the IPL since 2008 but are yet to win the tournament.On Monday, as RCB put up yet another hapless performance, Indian tennis great Mahesh Bhupathi penned a very heartfelt note on X.”For the sake of the Sport, the IPL, the fans and even the players i think BCCI needs to enforce the Sale of RCB to a New owner who will care to build a sports franchise the way most of the other teams have done so. #tragic,” Mahesh Bhupathi posted on X.
