There are a total of 3-5 players in the team whom we would like to retain: Kohli

AFTER RECORDING only their third win of IPL-10 in the final match of the group-stage, Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Virat Kohli termed the franchise’s season as the one to forget. 

RCB beat Delhi Daredevils by 10 runs at Feroz Shah Kotla. And, Kohli said that it was a good time for the franchise to look at the wrongdoings and make necessary changes before the next season commences. 

“It’s been a season to forget, a season to reflect on. We’ve got a great chance to look at all the things we’ve done wrong and refresh as a franchise.”

The India skipper divulged that he is happy to end the season on a winning note. He also mentioned that the franchise will try and retain about three to five players in the squad. 

“We do have guys in the 3-5 player bracket who we want to retain if that’s possible. They’ve shown the right attitude and they deserve it. It’s just nice to end on a winning note.”

The 28-year-old showered praise on Harshal Patel and Avesh Khan for their performance with the ball. 

“Both Harshal and Avesh played with a lot of heart. The way Avesh rushed it onto the batsmen on this pitch, something world-class bowlers couldn’t do, was impressive. We know Harshal’s skill set and he took three big wickets today, it’s unfortunate he couldn’t play more.”
