RCB eyes second consecutive title
Bengaluru would obviously like to win the second consecutive title. The team won its first title in the last season i.e. 2025. Now under the captaincy of captain Rajat Patidar, Bengaluru can win the title for the second consecutive time. Bengaluru will have to score 156 runs to lift the second trophy. Now it will be interesting to see how the team performs in the chase.
Bengaluru has a chance to become the third team after Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians to win two consecutive trophies. Chennai won the trophy consecutively in 2010 and 2011. Mumbai did this in 2019 and 2020.
