Mike Hesson was the director of cricket at RCB earlier. Bobat has replaced him.
Bobat will now work with Kohli, Andy Flower and captain Faf du Plessis at RCB.
In the last 15 edition, RCB has struggled to win a single trophy in IPL and hence they have brought Bobat.
Bobat was performance director of England Cricket earlier.
Bobat worked with RCB for as long as 12 years.
Bobat played a crucial role in England’s revolutionary approach to change white-ball game and win T20I and ODI World Cups.
Bobat and RCB head coach Andy Flower have previously worked together with England.
Bobat has led the identification, development and preparation of England’s extensive pool of players, across formats.
With RCB, he will oversee all talent recruitment and performance plans.
