[Saba Sports News] As the 17th IPL season approaches, Royal Challengers Bangalore fans are buzzing with excitement after England’s fast bowler Jofra Archer was spotted at the RCB cafe in Bangalore.
This sighting, coupled with his recent bowling practice for Sussex, has fueled speculation about his potential late entry into the league. Archer’s Instagram post from the cafe only intensified the rumors, especially since he was released by Mumbai Indians ahead of the recent mini-auction and was in Karnataka for Sussex’s pre-season camp.
Archer also played in a warm-up match in Alur, which added to the speculation about his IPL involvement. Meanwhile, RCB is preparing for the upcoming IPL 2024, hoping to rebound from a disappointing 2023 season where they missed the playoffs, finishing sixth.
With the new season starting on March 22, RCB is looking to turn their fortunes around and aim for their first IPL championship, building anticipation among fans for what’s to come.
