  “Bengaluru’s lions will roar from the start this season, but not everyone in the team understands Kannada!”

RCB’s Title Defense Begins

RCB enters IPL 2026 as defending champions after ending an 18-year wait by winning their maiden title last season against Punjab Kings. The team will now aim to retain the trophy with the same momentum.
