IPL 2024: RCB's Not Virat-dependent, Enough Time For Overseas Stars To Come Good, Says Reece Topley
Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Royal Challengers Bengaluru's English pacer Reece Topley has rejected the claim that the RCB has so far been dependent on Virat Kohli for runs as their overseas batters have failed to fire. He said it is too early to pass such a verdict and there is enough time for everyone to shine.
While Virat Kohli has stolen an early march on all batters, having scored 316 runs in five matches, the rest of the RCB batters have not contributed a lot with skipper Faf du Plessis a distant second with 109 runs while Cameron Green, their big acquisition ahead of IPL 2024, contributing only 68 runs in five innings. That has resulted in RCB lugging the bottom of the points table with only one win in five matches going into the match against Mumbai Indians on Thursday.
But Topley said it is too early to tag them as failures and said though Kohli has been the main contributor to their scores so far, there was enough time for others to shine through.
