The season was good for Royal Challengers Bangalore. They have finished third in the table with 9 wins and 5 losses. However, in the Eliminator, things were not in Royal Challengers Bangalore favor. RCB lost the match by 4 wickets.
After the match, during the presentation, Virat Kohli said that he gave 120% to this franchise. He said,
“I have tried my best to create a culture where youngsters could come and play expressive cricket. It is something I have tried to do at the India level as well. All I can say is that I have given my best. I have given my 120% to this franchise and will continue giving it as a player on the field. It is a great time to regroup and restructure the franchise for the next three years. I will definitely (play for RCB). For me, loyalty matters and my commitment is with this franchise till the last day I play IPL.“
