A cricket team called RCB had to let a player named Liam Livingstone go.
Even though they let him go, his bosses, the Director of Cricket and the Coach, said really nice things about him.
They said they were sad to see him leave and that he was a great player and person.
They remembered how he played really well when it mattered, like in the big final game.
They also said he had a good attitude even when he wasn't playing.
It's like when a friend has to move away, but you still remember all the good times and wish them well.
