RCB Director of Cricket said this before the auction
According to India Today, before the upcoming mega auction, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) Director of Cricket Mo Bobat said,
We are all well aware of the need to establish a strong Indian core for our team heading into the 2025 IPL season, and we feel our retentions are an important step in the right direction. It’s great to see Virat continuing his long-term association with RCB, I’m sure the new group of players will benefit greatly from him. It is also great to retain both Rajat and Yash, two excellent players who offer unique skills and abilities. We have now started preparations for our auction while retaining top Indian talent. We also have three RTMs and a good purse. This should be fun!
