RCB New Owner 2026: Royal Challengers Bangalore team is available for sale in the market. Many well-known personalities have shown interest in buying the RCB team. Adar Poonawala has expressed his desire to buy the champion team of IPL 2025. Now there is news that veteran Indian cricketer Virat Kohli’s wife and Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma also wants to buy a stake in the RCB franchise.
According to a report in Financial Express, Royal Challengers Bangalore does not want to gain control by buying a huge stake in the franchise. He is instead interested in buying a small stake in the team. It is being told that she wants to buy 3 percent stake in RCB franchise. According to the current valuation of the team, they may have to pay around Rs 400 crore for this 3 percent stake.
Let us tell you that the IPL 2025 champion team Royal Challengers Bangalore is owned by Diageo, which will have completely given up the ownership of the RCB team by March 2026. Let us tell you that Anushka Sharma or Virat Kohli do not have any stake in the team right now. If the reports turn out to be true, it will also be interesting to see whether BCCI allows Virat Kohli’s family to buy stake in the Bengaluru franchise or not.
Will BCCI rules come in the way?
Virat Kohli is currently playing for the Royal Challengers Bangalore team and he has played a big role in making RCB a big brand. In fact, if Virat Kohli or his family tries to buy any stake in the team, a rule of BCCI may come in their way.
In the year 2007, BCCI had banned players from buying any kind of stake in teams in the Indian Premier League. But according to reports, not Virat but his wife, Anushka Sharma can buy stake in the team.
Ranbir Kapoor also joins the race
Not only Anushka Sharma but Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor also wants to buy 2 percent stake in RCB franchise. They may have to pay an amount of Rs 300-350 crore for this. However, no such confirmation of all these claims has been found yet.
