CSK have very little white noise as compared to RCB, reveals Brendon McCullum
Brendon McCullum, who has played for both the sides, has highlighted the biggest difference between CSK and RCB saying CSK has very little âwhite noiseâ around them while RCB have too much. The comment was extracted from the book 'Cricket 2.0: Inside the T20 Revolution' written by Scyld Berry.

Blackcaps legend Brendon McCullum, who has played for both Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore, has highlighted the biggest difference between the two sides and has given superb insight into what drives both the teams. Baz has plied his trade for both teams and ended his career in the Indian Premier League (IPL), playing for Virat Kohliâs Challengers. His last IPL game was against MS Dhoniâs Super Kings itself back in May 2018.
The former Kiwi skipper, who has a couple of IPL tons under his belt, said that the Super Kings are loyal towards their players, a reason why they have played as a unit. The CSK have won the championship three times and have made the playoffs every other time. Even last year, they finished as the runners-up after Mumbai Indians, led by Rohit Sharma, defeated them by a solitary run in Hyderabad.
RCB, on the other hand, are yet to get their hands on the coveted trophy even once. They have played the finals twice in 2009 and 2016, but couldnât cross the final hurdle. As per McCullum, the team has loads of âwhite noiseâ and they donâtâ have a proper plan of how to proceed.
âOne team gives selection loyalty and works on the team they have; the other chases a perfect team and doesnât have a blueprint for how they are going to play. âCSK has very little âwhite noiseâ around them. RCB have too much,â said McCullum as quoted by Hindustan Times.
The comment was extracted from the book 'Cricket 2.0: Inside the T20 Revolution' written by Scyld Berry, who is a former editor of a leading cricket portal. There is an excerpt of the book which is online and it here where McCullum has spoken about the difference between Chennai Super Kings and the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
