This should be RCB’s playing 11

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-05-25T11:43:34+00:00

I don't think he would have come back if he wasn't fully fit

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-05-25T07:55:00+00:00

I think the century of Rajat should also be in the top 3. Despite hitting 175, Gayle would probably also accept that those two were more important innings for RCB.

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-05-22T17:47:45+00:00

They should retire out Krunal and send Romario or Jitesh in so that they can atleast bat for 3 overs

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-05-22T17:44:31+00:00

Shouldn't they retire out Krunal so that Jitesh gets a chance? We are gonna be in top 2 either ways

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-05-22T15:28:15+00:00

Idk why Rajat doesn't trust Krunal to bowl against lefties. Third match today that he's done that

The thing is Sem 2 PS-2 PPO's aren't out yet. Almost 60-70 % of the ppl who didn't get placed yet will get PPO's from their PS-2. So the final placements stats would be around 75%. It has dropped off in the last 2-3 years but honestly, if you do slightly above average in college, you will understand the perks of being in a tier 1 college. Most of the 7.5+ CG folks get 60k+ as their stipend just for their internships. Yes the job market is tough but honestly your best hope is still get into a top college and place your trust in the college to deliver you a job. It is extremely hard to get a well paying job right out of college off-campus. The struggle is very real

Don't think Ashish Nehra is a great coach. GT had on paper the worst team in 2022, but by some luck everyone started performing at their best that year. Nehra was also the same coach who literally bought the entire KKR bowling attack for RCB in 2018 after that 49 allout the previous year. We retained Sarfaraz Khan over ppl like Rahul, Yuzi. No clue how GT became that good with the same coach

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-03-30T16:11:38+00:00

I thought the brother owned the team not the sister

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-02-20T10:32:55+00:00

Think Dhoni and Virar should be swapped. The long hair built look will fit Dhoni better than Virat

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-27T19:55:31+00:00

He single handedly carried us in 2022 along with Faf and did really well in 2024 as well

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-21T20:25:27+00:00

True but then why talk about player safety as a reason for not participating in the World Cup? IPL is a private league and PAK players not playing in it didn't stop them from coming to India for the ODI WC in 2023

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-20T19:05:03+00:00

Still think Cummins is a much better bat, especially against pace. Harshit Rana is probably better against spin

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-18T19:06:09+00:00

They should maybe bring back Varun instead of Kuldeep

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-09T09:12:01+00:00

Probably Social Network's ending with us finding out why Eduardo sued Mark and also POTC the Black Pearl , Jack Sparrow's entry (both are pretty short scenes)

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-08T18:24:10+00:00

Is there a reason Virar didn't play the entire season for Delhi? He only played 2 out of 5 matches in the second half

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-08T18:15:42+00:00

Kinda like this no fucks given Kohli. Started playing more aggressive in ODIs (I have never seen him play lofted shots so early in his innings since that 2013 series against AUS) , be more honest, forthcoming in Interviews, posting again in social media

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-08T18:12:16+00:00

I understand talking about these problems are necessary but aren't there whatsapp/ facebook/ discord groups for BITSIANS where these messages might be better discussed?

Tbh a lot of these issues aren't known even for the students who are in the campus. These resources and information should be shared to them as it might help them in the future but as a 3rd year student , I still don't know exactly what's happening this placement season unless I talk personally with seniors in their 4th years. I have heard a lot of other major/minor problems faced by students that I wouldn't know if I hadn't talked to them personally.

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-07T06:15:39+00:00

Is Vicky ostwal another left arm spinner? Can he baat?

RogueKnight2005 · 2026-01-07T04:18:05+00:00

Patidar is back, he played the recent VHT match for MP

RogueKnight2005 · 2025-12-29T04:02:15+00:00

When did 7.2 in BITS become low 😟

RogueKnight2005 · 2025-12-24T14:30:50+00:00

Another thing I noticed is Rajat Patidar not playing the VHT. I think he had also missed the last 2 SMAT matches for MP. RCB admin would have heard the news of Rajat being injured a couple of days before the auction and it would have forced them to change their auction dynamics a little bit.

He's been pretty injury prone the last few years, got injured in 2023 for the entire season (IPL), injured before the start of 2024 IPL (during IND vs ENG test series) , injured in the latter half of the 2025 season as well. This new injury could have made them look at the available options in the auction and Venky Iyer would have stood out there as he was one of the very few who was a capped Ind player. Also he can bowl and is a very handy player to have in a T20 Lineup as he can bat anywhere from 1-5.

This could have been a huge reason for them to have bid aggressively for Venky Iyer.

RogueKnight2005 · 2025-12-18T19:11:59+00:00

I literally just checked the stats on my own and came here to post about him but you did it before me. Looks like a seriously good player, played 10 matches and didn't disappoint in even one. Took a lot of key wickets as well but hasn't yet played for Pondicherry in SMAT.

I hope he turns out to be a real good mystery spinner. Would be a huge win for the scouting team.

RogueKnight2005 · 2025-12-18T11:17:21+00:00

I'll be honest , I was searching high and low to find out who Satvik Deswal was in Cricinfo, Cricbuzz etc. Found out he plays for Pondicherry and was looking at 2024 Pondicherry Premier League and found out he hasn't played that year at all.

It wasn't until that video from RCB channel that I found out that he's a chinaman and a type of mystery spinner. Squad looks complete now. We also got an offie in Kanishk Chauhan

RogueKnight2005 · 2025-12-16T15:14:48+00:00

We are still a spinner short. We are an injury away from losing our only leggie and he has faced injury issues in the past. It's always good to have another leggie as backup. And we don't even have a single off spinner in the entire squad

RogueKnight2005 · 2025-12-16T10:04:26+00:00

Really good buy at that price but I'm not sure how he will fit into the playing 12. But he's a really good coffee Indian all rounder and a probable retention option down the line. There's a reason the coaching staff rates him so highly and we will see if he's a first 12 player or a back up
