With a title to defend, Royal Challengers Bengaluru head coach Andy Flower feels the franchise have strengthened key areas at the auction and is ready for a fresh challenge in the upcoming IPL.
“We had an interesting auction and I think we’ve improved our squad. We’ve brought in some great new additions. Integrating them into the RCB way alongside established players led by Virat [Kohli] and Rajat [Patidar] is an exciting part of building this team,” Flower said.
Highlighting the significance of being reigning champions, Flower said the team would embrace the challenge rather than dwell on past success.
“There is one difference this year, we’ve got a star on our shirt. That’s a very proud feeling for all RCB fans. But that season is gone. Now we have a new challenge ahead, and it’s an exciting one. We’re here to win this year’s IPL,” he added.
Flower also pointed to the advantage of beginning their campaign at home. “Our first game is here at Chinnaswamy, which is a fantastic opportunity for us to build momentum early and be welcomed by our fans. The outfield is looking superb, lush, green and beautiful,” he said.
