Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Mitchell Starc, Sarfaraz Khan, Ab de Villiers; the list is getting longer for Royal Challengers Bangalore. This list is about players who got injured just before the start of the tournament. Shane Watson is announced captain of Royal Challengers Bangalore in the absence of their captain Virat Kohli.
AB de Villiers on twitter expressed his disappointment on missing the first game of IPL for RCB. In reply to that tweet, Gujarat Lions opener Brendon McCullum asks RCB to let their coach Daniel Vettori take the field in the absence of inured star players. RCB will start its campaign against Sunrisers Hyderabad coming Wednesday.
