RCB fans are eagerly waiting to get an update on the availability of Phil Salt. He has returned to India after a few scans in the United Kingdom but has not joined the team. After securing a win over KKR, their skipper, Rajat Patidar talked about Phil Salt's availability.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru are back at the top of the table. A few changes in their line-up did help the team to a great extent, but all of their issues are still not solved. One of the key issues which the team is facing right now is Phil Salt being unavailable, as he suffered with a finger injury a few weeks back.
Since the clash against Delhi Capitals, he has not been a part of the playing XI. In his place, Virat Kohli has been opening with Jacob Bethell, but Bethell has not been able to do well in the tournament lately. This has made the RCB fans more worried, as they wonder when they would be able to watch Phil Salt back in the team.
He went back to the United Kingdom for a few scans and returned to India a few days ago. But he has not featured even in the game against Kolkata Knight Riders. When Rajat Patidar was asked about his availability, he replied by saying that even though he doesn't know about the same, he is sure that Phil Salt will come soon.
The availability of Phil Salt will be crucial for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, as the team has almost sealed its spot in the playoffs. Since Jacob Bethell has not been able to do well with the bat, it is only Salt who could be the missing element in the team's batting line-up. He has joined the team after some scans in England and now remains optimistic to be back soon.
