1. Poor decisions by RCB management
It all started when everyone wondered why Sarfaraz Khan was preferred over KL Rahul or any other batsman for retention!! The end result being Sarfaraz failing to make into the playing XI due to his awful performances.
The management was so clueless as they were struggling to use even the RTM properly in the auction time. Though Chahal was retained, another call on RTM could have been choosing wisely and this surely cost the management.
Rahul, Gayle and Shane Watson are performing exceptionally well for their respective franchises this season and this decision surely frustrated the fans.
