As the Royal Challengers Bengaluru have released most of their players ahead of the IPL 2025 mega-auction with just three of them being retained, namely Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar and Yash Dayal, they will have three RTM’s going into the mega-auction.
They have quite a few players whom they actually try and push the RTM for and with the kind of firepower that they had on display, one wouldn’t be surprised to see if they can win back three of the big names.
Here are the three players whom RCB may try and exercise the RTM for in the 2025 IPL mega-auction:
#1 Cameron Green
Even though Cameron Green was released due o his lower injury, yet going by the time frame, he should have ample time to recover ahead of the upcoming IPL.
With that being said, Green needs to be fit and that is when the RTM might come into play. Bought for INR 17.5 crore from Mumbai Indians as a part of an all-cash trade, RCB might just think twice before letting him go from the auction as well. The versatility of Green laced with his firepower in batting while his clinical bowling and fielding makes him a sensational pick to work the RTM for.
#2 Will Jacks
The entire IPL has already seen that Will Jacks can unleash unmitigated fury upon the bowlers as he scored a 41-ball-100 against Gujarat Titans in the last edition of the IPL. Jacks has been in sensational form across various franchise leagues across the world. Not only is he a destructive batter but he is also a handy bowler and can get you a wicket or two. After witnessing first hand destruction from Jacks last season, RCB might just try and use the RTM on him.
#3 Mohammed Siraj
The ace quick from RCB, Mohammed Siraj was released into the wilderness and it goes without saying that the Royal Challengers will not like Siraj to go away from them. Despite releasing him, the conversations may have already happened and the kind of precision that Siraj brings to the table, RCB will do good to keep their front line strike bowler.
