Sanjay Bangar is a former Indian all-rounder who has represented the country in 27 internationals. He was part of the Indian dressing room in many capacities for five years since 2014, including batting coach, interim head coach and assistant coach. He was appointed as the batting coach of the RCB in February 2021.
Marking the development in an official statement, RCB director of cricket Mike Hesson said:
Under Hesson and Sanjay Bangar’s tutelage, RCB reached the playoffs of IPL 2021, but failed to go any further.
“Our work has already begun” - Sanjay Bangar
Sanjay Bangar thanked RCB for his appointment. He said the backroom staff had already begun their spadework towards strategies for the IPL 2022 season and the mega auction that’ll precede it.
The 49-year-old said he and the RCB are committed to achieving the fans’ “long-cherished dream” of winning an IPL title.
Sanjay Bangar said:
The mega-auction is likely to be held in December with the IPL 2022 kickstarting in the summer next year. The new management’s first task at hand would be to select an heir for the iconic captain Virat Kohli and take the franchise in a new direction.
