Virat Kohli-led Royal Challengers Bangalore came out wearing green jerseys against Delhi Capitals at the M. Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru on Sunday to spread a message on environmental conservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The RCB players were clad in green jerseys as they celebrated ‘Green Day’ to spread awareness about the importance of caring for the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The franchise has worn the green dress in the previous editions as well, as part of their “Go Green” initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
RCB skipper Virat Kohli also posed with Delhi Capitals skipper Shreyas Iyer holding a plant, at the toss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a tradition, the RCB captain gives the opposition captain a plant on the day of the initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The franchise has been continuing this practice since the 2011 season to create awareness about global warming. The side has also been taking initiatives to plant trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Earlier they have asked the fans to travel by buses to save fuel. This year, the franchise is focusing on raising awareness of recycling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a tweet from the official handle, RCB wrote: \u201cWaste segregation makes recycling of waste simple. To raise awareness on recycling, the RCB team wears green jerseys made <\/p>\n\n\n\n
of recycled plastic. The jersey is the team’s promise to Go Green and their way of stepping up to save the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
RCB has not had the best of starts in IPL 2019 season. The franchise is currently lying at the bottom of the table, after suffering six defeats in the games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
