The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) invested heavily in their team ahead of the IPL 2025 season and one of their shrewdest signings was the promising young Englishman, Jacob Bethell. The English prodigy was signed for 2.6 crore as fans have a lot of expectations from him.

He recently made his Test debut against New Zealand and after a promising life, was also drafted in the Melbourne Renegades squad for the BBL season. However, the ongoing season has been a disappointing one for the English batter and it got worse on Monday during the clash Vs Sydney Thunder.

The Renegades needed 157 runs to seal the win but they lost wickets in clusters. Bethell walked into bat at number 4 but was immediately dismissed by Daniel Sams but not before Bethell had a brain-fade moment.

The ball slipped off Daniel Sams' hands as it turned out to be a high full-toss. Bethell got bamboozled by the delivery as he was late on his attempted shot as the ball went onto strike the stumps. It seems as if he saw the ball late and had little time to react.

RCB saw promise in Bethell's approach

When RCB decided to bid for Bethell, eyebrows were raised as the England player was a rather unknown commodity and had no prior experience of playing in the league.

However, the RCB team needed a left-handed aggressive batter in the middle-order and Bethell was the perfect fit in the side. He is a naturally aggressive player and the IPL side saw a lot of promise in him as he embarks on his maiden IPL journey with the RCB side.
