Despite not winning an IPL title, RCB's loyal fanbase backs their stars, especially Virat Kohli, with unwavering love.
Their electrifying chants, support, and love make Royal Challengers Bengaluru one of the most loved franchises in the world of T20 league. As the Indian Premier League is all set for another grand season starting on March 22, the RCB is already winning hearts in Pakistan.
Mohammad Amir wants to play for RCB in the IPL
Mohammad Amir revealed he would love to play for Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the IPL when the former Pakistani pacer was asked which team he would like to play for in the Indian T20 league.
Speaking on the ‘Haarna Mana Hai’ show, Mohammad Amir said, “Virat Kohli’s Bangalore. Yes, RCB.” To which the host jokes that RCB still hunting for its maiden IPL title.
Then, the discussion quickly turned intense, with Ahmed Shehzad pointing out RCB’s long-standing struggle with their bowling attack. Shehzad said that Amir could be the game-changer they need to finally win the IPL title, as their batting has always been world-class.

Ahmed Shehzad said on the show, “RCB needs a bowler like Amir. Because RCB is always stuck in depth or fast bowling. Batting is always top-notch. If Amir goes and plays in RCB, it's possible that RCB will win the title.”
However, Rashid Latif had other ideas, claiming that as long as MS Dhoni is with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s wait for the IPL trophy will continue. Latif said, “What are you saying? As long as Dhoni is in CSK, he will take the title of RCB without even thinking.”
