IPL 2021: RCB will be a lot stronger with Virat Kohli at the top of order, says Michael Vaughan

Former England captain Michael Vaughan believes that if Virat Kohli opens the inning for Royal Challengers Bangalore, it would be beneficial for the team.

Former England captain Michael Vaughan believes that Royal Challengers Bangalore will be a lot stronger by having captain Virat Kohli at the top of the order. Notably, Virat Kohli has confirmed that he will open the batting for RCB in IPL 2021. Kohli decided to promote himself in the batting order of the Indian team on Saturday as India took on England in the fifth T20I. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma brought carnage to the crease and stitched a match-winning 94-run opening stand to help India amass 224 for 2, their highest total against England. It was only the eighth time in 84 innings that Kohli opened the batting, but what worked against the world's top-ranked team may also succeed in the format's showcase tournament as well.
