Social Media Feels Sad as RCB Face Setback with Patidar Injury, Hazlewood Doubtful

As the Indian Premier League 2025 resumes, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) face a major setback with skipper Rajat Patidar’s finger injury casting doubt over his availability for the rest of the season. Injured during a match against Chennai Super Kings, Patidar has been advised to wear a splint and avoid practice sessions. If ruled out, it would be a significant blow to RCB, currently placed second in the points table and eyeing their first IPL title. The team might turn to Jitesh Sharma for captaincy if Patidar remains unfit.

RCB already lost Devdutt Padikkal earlier due to a hamstring injury and brought in Mayank Agarwal as a replacement. Meanwhile, Australian pacer Josh Hazlewood is also unlikely to return, as he has a lingering shoulder issue and is focused on preparing for the World Test Championship final starting June 11 in London. He missed several recent fixtures for Australia and RCB, making a comeback for the franchise increasingly improbable this season.
