Netherlands pacer Paul van Meekeren said a small share of Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s Rs 16,660 crore sale could help Dutch cricket grow. After the franchise was sold to a multi-industry consortium, he posted that “0.5%” of the amount could help close the gap with top teams. “If only they could give 0.5%… we could close the gap to full members,” he wrote on X. The Netherlands recently competed in the T20 World Cup 2026 and showed strong performances despite an early exit. Players from associate nations have asked for more matches against top sides. RCB’s sale came after former owners United Spirits reviewed its stake. (PC: India Today)
