There’s both good and bad news for Royal Challengers Bangaluru fans. The good news is that the 온라인카지노 Premier League is set to restart soon, as the India-Pakistan border tensions have de-escalated following a ceasefire. The bad news, however, is that even if the IPL resumes, RCB might have to continue without their captain, Rajat Patidar, as he may not be available to play due to injury.
Will RCB Manage Without Rajat Patidar? Injury Concerns Loom As IPL 2025 Set To Restart Soon
With the IPL on hold for a week, RCB captain Rajat Patidar has had some time to rest. However, with reports suggesting the tournament could resume on May 16, there are huge chances he might miss the first few games after the restart
Patidar, who has led a star-studded RCB squad to a dominant run this season, is currently recovering from a finger injury sustained on May 3 during the RCB vs Chennai Super Kings match at Chinnaswamy. He is expected to miss at least two matches.
Due to the severity of the injury, the 31-year-old has been advised to keep his finger in a splint and not train for at least 10 days. After that, doctors will check again to see how it's healing.

The concerns deepen for RCB fans as their star bowler Josh Hazlewood is also dealing with a shoulder niggle. He missed the May 3 clash against CSK.
The IPL was suspended on May 9, the same day RCB were set to face Lucknow Super Giants at Ekana. But even if the league had gone ahead, it seemed the RCB curse was far from over -- the Virat Kohli featuring team, still chasing their first IPL title, was staring at fresh setbacks with both Josh Hazlewood and captain Rajat Patidar doubtful due to injuries.
RCB currently sit second on the points table with 16 points from 11 matches. Their playoff spot is all but sealed, with just three league games remaining -- against Lucknow Super Giants, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Kolkata Knight Riders.
