Jitesh said he was given the opportunity to Captain RCB against LSG, which was a big thing for him and his family. Wicketkeeper said he was already wondering who would replace Devdutt Padikkal and Patidar in the game lineup.
“I was very grateful for the opportunity she gave me,” Jitesh said at RCB Bold Diaries. “They gave me the opportunity to Captain RCB, and for me and my family it is a very big thing. I was thinking about what the right combination would be, because both Devdutt (Padikkal) and Rajat were not available and it was a great responsibility to replace them.”
