Robin Uthappa’s Perspective on RCB’s New Captain
 

Former cricketer Robin Uthappa believes Axar Patel may excel more in his leadership role compared to Patidar. However, he suggests that Patidar could thrive by adopting Virat Kohli’s leadership style and relying on his mentorship. Uthappa emphasized that while Patidar has the talent, leadership demands strategic decision-making and handling pressure situations.
