IPL 2024 RCB: Every year when the auction is held for IPL, huge bids are made on the players. There is no talk of lakhs here, players are bought for crores of rupees. When players are bought for crores of rupees, the teams become happy that this time they will definitely win. But when the competitions start on the field, these expensive players get nervous. Something similar is being seen here also. If we talk about RCB, every year this team buys players at expensive prices, but still yearns for victory.

Cameron Green was bid 67 times in mega auction

In the first mega auction of the year 2023, teams showered notes on Cameron Green, one of Australia's best players. Cameron Green came into the auction at a base price of only Rs 20 lakh. When his name was called, RCB and Mumbai Indians started bidding to get him in their fold. The prices kept increasing one after the other. When the bidding started at Rs 20 lakh, it reached Rs 7 lakh, then Delhi Capitals also jumped into the fray and started bidding on him. But when the price started increasing further, DC pulled out, but RCB and Mumbai did not lose courage. Cameron Green was bid about 67 times and finally Mumbai Indians bought him for Rs 17.50 crore. Cameron Green also performed well in his first year playing for MI.

Green had performed well for Mumbai in the year 2023.

He played 16 matches for Mumbai Indians in the year 2023 and managed to score 452 runs in them. His average was around 50 and he batted at a strike rate of more than 160. He also had an unbeaten century to his name that year. But next year i.e. before IPL 2024, Mumbai Indians traded him with RCB. That means this year he is playing for RCB. RCB spent the same amount for him as MI bought him for. That means the entire Rs 17.50 crore. But this year his bat is completely shrouded in silence.

Green flopped as soon as he came to RCB

Cameron Green has played 4 matches so far for RCB in IPL 2024 and he has only 63 runs to his name. This means that Green has not been able to score as many runs till now as many times as he was bid during the auction. Cameron Green's average this year is 15.75 and he is batting at a strike rate of 110.53. Till now he has not been able to cross even the 50 mark in these four matches, his highest score is only 33 runs.

RCB team is at ninth position in IPL 2024 points table.

RCB team has played 4 matches so far in this year's IPL, out of which it has faced defeat in three. Only one has won. RCB was the first team this year to lose its match at home. After this, the team also lost the second match at its home i.e. Bengaluru. Now the condition of the team has become very thin. The team is currently at ninth position in this ten-team tournament. After that there is only Mumbai Indians, which has not been able to open its account yet. Now it will be interesting to see whether the RCB team gets back on track and succeeds in winning their matches or the same series of defeats continues.
