Rahul dravid, rajasthan royals: In IPL 2025, many teams are also seen struggling at their home ground. The worst condition of Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kolkata Knight Riders has been on its home ground. This season, many teams like Royal Challengers Bangalore, Chennai Super Kings, Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders have expressed dissatisfaction with the pitches on their home ground.

Rajasthan Royals head coach Rahul Dravid said on Wednesday that the teams are talking about not getting the benefit of playing on the home ground in this season of IPL due to the players joining the new teams and not having much knowledge of the ground situation.

On the eve of the Rajasthan Royals match against RCB, Rahul Dravid said, “It depends on the ground. I don’t know what the teams want from their curator. The teams are new after the mega auction. There are many players who are playing on those grounds for the first time after the auction. Which is connected to us from this year.

Dravid said that as the season progresses, the players will adapt themselves to the grounds. He said, “When there is a big auction, the team changes and the benefit of playing on the home ground is not as important. Later, the players start to look a bit important with practice and more playing.”

Let us know that before the mega auction, all the teams had a chance to retain 6 players. Kolkata Knight Riders also retained the maximum 6 players. In such a situation, the teams had a chance to retain their core group, but many teams themselves decided to go with new players.
