South African former opening batsman Herschelle Gibbs has somehow taken a dig at Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) following their poor showing in the IPL 2019.
Earlier, Virat Kohli-led side has become the first team in the ongoing edition which has crashed out of the tournament.
Interestingly, they could end up on the bottom of the table, if Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) would be able to prevail over top-toppers Chennai Super Kings (CSK)
However, in their last group game, RCB has spoiled the part of Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).
Before finishing things off on a good note, RCB had a horrible start which saw them losing as many as six consecutive games.
Meanwhile, the Proteas star batsman has recently commented on RCB’s Twitter post. The RCB’s official Twitter handle has credited the crowd at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru for their support.
RCB likely to overhaul ahead of the IPL 2020:
From time and again, the die-hard fans had backed their team in the testing times. Apart from Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers and Yuvzendra Chahal have done a fair job. But most of their players had a dismal run.
“Chinnaswamy & Bengaluru: THANK YOU. You Challengers give us goosebumps. Neev illa andhre, naavu yenu alla. Without you guys, we’re nothing,” Bangalore wrote.
In his comment, the 45-year-old right-handed batsman Gibbs while taking a sly dig maintained, he is available for the coach role.
“If you guys need a new coach I’m available,” before deleting his reply, Gibbs wrote.
It’s important to point out that, Gibbs’ former teammate and Team India’s World Cup-winning coach Gary Kirsten is serving the franchise as a chief coach.
Chinnaswamy & Bengaluru:
THANK YOU.
You Challengers give us goosebumps.
Neev illa andhre, naavu yenu alla.
Without you guys, we're nothing.

Interestingly, Gibbs has been the part of IPL since 2008 before playing his last season in 2012. While representing Deccan Chargers (DC) now-defunct and the three-time IPL champions Mumbai Indians (MI), Gibbs has garnered 886 runs at an average of 27.68 in 36 matches.
During his stay, Gibbs has slammed six half-centuries
