Royal Challengers Bengaluru have won just one game out of their seven matches so far in IPL 2024.

Kolkata: Royal Challengers Bengaluru will be wearing their famous green jerseys against Kolkata Knight Riders in their IPL 2024 encounter on Sunday at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. RCB, who are yet to win an IPL title so far in 16 editions, have been donning the green jerseys for a few years now as a part of their ‘Go Green’ initiative, aimed at awareness about conservation, sustainability, and the significance of environmental protection.
Notably, the eco-friendly jerseys are made from recycled wasted collected at the stadium.

Meanwhile, RCB will be missing the services of all-rounder Glenn Maxwell against KKR. The Australian revealed that he is also nursing a ‘hip strain’ and is unlikely to return for his team’s away IPL match in Kolkata. The 35-year-old, who has managed just 32 runs in six innings with an average of 5.33, pulled out of their previous match against Sunrisers Hyderabad saying ‘physical and mental toll probably just wore me down a little bit’. On ESPN’s ‘Around the Wicket’ show he also disclosed his hip injury.

“I’ve actually got a little bit of a hip strain so I’ve got a few more days off and during recovery,” he said.
“So I’ve got a little period here where I’m still training, still trying to get myself right. If there is a spot that becomes available, I’ll obviously put my hand up and take it.

“It’s not one of those things where I’ve set a date that I’ll be out for three games then I’ll come back whenever I’m ready. That’s that’s not how it works. I haven’t been at a level that’s good enough to warrant a spot on the side this year,” he said.
