Suspense remains over RCB's captaincy duties for the upcoming season. Let's figure out who could be the potential captaincy pick for RCB barring Virat Kohli.

In October, RCB launched a new account on X, formerly known as Twitter, aimed at engaging with and reaching out to Hindi-speaking audiences both in India and abroad.

Virat Kohli has reportedly shown interest in leading the team again. The RCB mainstay has endured a topsy turvy journey with the franchise, but looks ready to spearhead the team for at least the next cycle.

Royal Challengers Bangalore secured Jitesh Sharma for a whopping Rs 11 crore in the IPL 2025 auction. Sharma's salary increased by 55 times his previous IPL earnings. RCB bought Sharma to fill the wicketkeeper-batter role vacated by Dinesh Karthik.

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) has faced online criticism after creating a separate social media handle for Hindi-speaking fans or those who don’t understand English. The new X (formerly Twitter) account, named "Royal Challengers Bengaluru Hindi" with the handle "@RCBinHindi," has stirred controversy among Kannada speakers.

Meanwhile, RCB bought Aussie pacer Josh Hazlewood and England all-rounder Liam Livingston for ₹ 8.5 crore in the IPL Auction 2025.

The team made the decision to release Faf du Plessis, who served as captain in the previous season, signaling that Kohli would resume his leadership role.

Many fans expected ​​RCB to go for KL Rahul. However, they surprisingly stopped bidding after Rs 10.75 crore. They also let Yuzvendra Chahal go, and even did not opt to exercise their Right to Match card on either Mohammed Siraj or Glenn Maxwell.
