The Royal Challengers Bangalore are gearing up for a cracker of an opening fixture as they take on the Chennai Super Kings in their first game of the Indian Premier League 2024. But Glenn Maxwell seems to be in good spirits as he was seen mimicking Virat Kohli’s batting during a training session.
Kohli was seen in the nets practising his shots while Maxwell was well behind him the Australian was seen recreating his shots as well. The Australian was also giving some motivational words as Kohli played some brilliant shots all over the ground.
Even Mohammed Siraj was seen looking to mimic the shots as well. Maxwell then even tried acting out Kohli’s little detail where he tries to get his gloves into position. Siraj and Maxwell were also seen having some cheeky banter between each other as well.

Much like last season, the onus will be on the big-name players in the squad to pull together a string of performances to help the side get points consistently. Their batting unit is the strongest it has ever been with Faf du Plessis and Kohli opening, followed by their big-money signing Cameron Green, the Indian talent Rajat Patidar who will look to put his woes in the recent Test series vs England behind him, Maxwell, and DK.

Another big point to note is that the coming IPL will be the last for their wicketkeeper batter, Dinesh Karthik who has held down the role as the finisher ever since he returned to the side in 2022.
The side will open their season against CSK followed by the Punjab Kings, Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants at home and then a trip to the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur to take on the Rajasthan Royals in the first phase of the tournament.
