Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell and Faf du Plessis to bat left-handed? RCB shares update: WATCH

RCB vs RR: Royal Challengers Bangalore returned back to winning ways as they defeated Punjab Kings by 24 runs in their last match of the IPL 2023. Besides the team's average performance so far in the tournament, Virat Kohli, skipper Faf du Plessis, and Glenn Maxwell have been the consistent run scorers of the team. However, the fans might witness the three players batting left-handed in the RR vs RCB match as the Bangalore-based franchise has shared a video on their Twitter handle for the same. 

In the video shared by the Royal Challengers Bangalore on their official Twitter handle, fans can see Virat Kohli, Faf du Plessis, Glenn Maxwell, and Dinesh Karthik bat with their left hand in the team nets. All the batsmen are naturally right-handed and have never been seen playing with the left hand. However, the players struck the ball really well in the nets and they made it look very professional playing with the left hand.
