Royal Challengers Bangalore’s dream of winning their first title in the IPL was fulfilled last season. Bengaluru won this title by the team’s new captain Rajat Patidar, who has consistently shown his batting prowess in the IPL. Patidar’s captaincy and batting brilliance can also be seen in IPL 2026, where RCB is becoming a headache for other teams and Patidar is becoming a headache for the opposing bowlers. Questions are being raised again and again that what is the weakness of Patidar? But now it seems that this has also been revealed.

Patidar becomes a disaster for bowlers

As soon as the IPL 2026 season starts Bengaluru Captain Rajat Patidar’s bat is seen spitting fire. He has not made very big scores but has played many short and stormy innings as per the need of the team. Especially in many matches, he opened his account by hitting a six on the first or second ball and then contributed to the team’s victory by scoring runs at a strike rate of more than 200.

The specialty of Patidar’s batting has been that he is not only very dangerous against the spinners but at the same time he has also been sending the fast bowlers across the boundary. In such a situation, the question often arises that how should the bowler be used against them. But now it seems that the solution to stop the Patidar storm has been found. Statistics show that Bengaluru captain Patidar often struggles against left-arm fast bowlers.

This is the biggest weakness of Patidar

In his IPL career, Patidar has faced 113 balls from left-arm pacers. During this period, he has become the victim of these bowlers 9 times. Same thing happened against Gujarat Titans, when left arm pacer Arshad Khan got the wicket of Rajat Patidar. However, Patidar has also scored runs quickly against left-arm pacers. According to the statistics, Patidar has scored 164 runs in these 113 balls. That means his strike rate is 145, which is strong.
