Royal Challengers Bangalore’s journey in the 16th season of IPL ended with a defeat in their last league match against Gujarat Titans. It was very important for RCB to win this match to reach the playoffs. But the team had to face defeat from Gujarat by 6 wickets. During fielding in this match, Virat Kohli got injured in his knee. Due to this, the tension of the Indian team has definitely increased before the World Test Championship final.

India has to play the final match of the World Test Championship against Australia at the Oval in England from June 7. Prior to that, during the match against Gujarat, Virat Kohli’s injury has definitely increased everyone’s concern. Virat Kohli injured his knee while giving a catch to Vijay Shankar during the 15th over of the innings. As soon as Virat Kohli suffered a knee injury, the physio immediately entered the field. After this Kohli left the field and did not return to the field again in the match. Now after the match, RCB team’s head coach Sanjay Bangar gave a statement on Kohli’s injury and said that it is not very serious.

In the press conference after the match, Sanjay Bangar said, ‘Yes, he has a slight knee injury, but it is not very serious. Played 2 consecutive century innings in a span of 4 days. He is a player who tries his best to contribute not only with the bat but also while fielding. He was on the field for around 40 overs in the last match and around 35 overs today. He tries to give his best and sometimes such things happen. But I think there is no need to be too serious about it.

The first batch of Indian players will leave for England on May 23.

The players of the Indian team will leave for the final match of the World Test Championship in England in 3 batches. The first batch will now leave on May 23, after the league stage matches of the IPL are over. Virat Kohli, Shardul Thakur, Ravichandran Ashwin, Akshar Patel, Mohammed Siraj and Umesh Yadav are expected to leave.
