New Delhi: English cricketer Jacob Bethell who reprsesnts RCB in IPL 2025 spoke positively about working alongside Virat Kohli. He liked teaming up with his international teammates and felt that batting with Kohli really inspired him. Because he has been with Royal Challengers Bangalore for such a long time Virat Kohli stands out as a major influence and leader. He has had a major impact on the franchise helping guide a lot of players throughout his career. RCB opener Jacob Bethell discussed Virat Kohlis enduring influence and the value of Kohlis brief helpful guidance. I think he quite enjoys the overseas boys because we are just pretty chill around him. He has definitely got that feeling. And when he walks out to bat it is pretty electrifying to walk out with him. It (advice) was just like an accumulation over the couple of months of just chatting to him. You get information that keeps coming in ways that you do not really know and it is kind of just drip-fed Jacob Bethell said as quoted by ESPNCricinfo. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru had a highly successful regular season winning many matches despite a poor home record. Their strong away performances proved their overall dominance in the league. Rajat Patidars team performed well securing a playoff spot with a second-place finish. RCB decisively defeated PBKS in Qualifier 1 earning a place in the final. RCBs bowlers excelled restricting PBKS to a low score which they then comfortably chased. Competition is intensifying as teams vie for the final remaining spot in the Narendra Modi Stadium championship.
