As a fan, I am proud of the boys for giving us confidence – AB de Villiers
Even in this season of IPL, Royal Challengers Bangalore’s dream of winning the trophy has been shattered. The team reached the playoffs with 14 points after winning 6 out of the last 6 matches of the league stage round. But then in the eliminator, the team had to face defeat by 4 wickets against Rajasthan Royals.
Batting first in this match, RCB was able to score only 172 runs at the loss of 8 wickets. Rajasthan chased the target with one over remaining. Former player AB de Villiers has given a big statement regarding the team’s performance after the defeat.
I am proud of the boys- AB de Villiers
After Royal Challengers Bangalore’s defeat in the eliminator, AB de Villiers said that the team will definitely come back next season and win the trophy. De Villiers tweeted on social media, ‘Losing always hurts. But as a fan, I’m proud of the boys for keeping us believing, even when all hope seemed lost in early May. I am sure RCB will come back stronger next year and bring home the title.
It’s always painful to lose. But as a fan, I’m proud of the boys for making us believe, even when all hope seemed lost at the start of May.
i’m sure #RCB will come back stronger next year and bring home that elusive title. #IPL2024
