Media Coverage on RCB:

Royal Challengers Bangalore is a team that has had numerous notable players in their squad over the years. They have also been captained by Virat Kohli for the most part of the decade. Not winning a championship despite that has earned them the title of ‘underachievers’.

Bangalore has been the runners up on three occasions. The first was the second season of the IPL in 2009. This was under the captaincy of Kevin Pietersen. The second time they came close was in 2011 under the captaincy of Daniel Vettori.

Things were looking up for RCB in the 2016 season in which RCB captain and star Virat Kohli hit 4 centuries. However, they couldn’t win the finals and were placed second yet again.
