RCB’s history is more of a typical Indian daily series. More of a masala type, they have done the impossible by reaching the finals of the 2016 edition of the IPL. But, on the other side, they have performed poorly even when they had star cricketers in their squad. The two things on which they should be proud are their fans and their star batsman Virat Kohli.

While most of the fans follow the Royal Challengers Bangalore because of Virat Kohli and AB de Villers, they often get disappointed because of their team’s performance. But, the brand name and skillset of the Indian captain is enough to keep the candle of hope ignited in their fan’s hearts. The ICC Cricketer of the decade is by far, the best player to ever represent the Royal Challengers Bangalore. Every season, RCB disappoints as a team, even Kohli does, as a captain though! But, when we talk about his batting, he is the best batsman in this era. 

He has amassed 5878 runs in his IPL career and has a strike rate of 130.73. During the 2016 IPL season, he was unbeatable, he scored runs for fun. His run tally during the 2016 IPL season is 973 runs with a strike rate of 152.03. Virat single-handedly dragged a dead RCB team into the finals. However, a middle-order collapse ensured that they fell short during the crucial stage of the game. Therefore, Virat Kohli, for his heroic efforts is the best player for the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
