Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Still to win a title in the league, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are gearing up to make some strategic moves at the two-day Mega Auction for Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on Sunday and Monday.

Armed with detailed insights into domestic cricket, analysis of players who can leverage Chinnaswamy’s unique playing conditions, and backed with multiple scenarios that can enhance their bowling depth and bring an edge to their campaign, the RCB aims to strive for excellence in IPL 2025 starting with success at the auction.

"In the last week or so, I’ve woken up from sleep with a player or a number in my head. Every morning, I find myself thinking about how the team’s structure should look. My perspective on how I would be picked—based on who would want me—is so different now that I’m sitting on the other side. The jeopardy involved makes the auction such an interesting and unpredictable place," said batting coach Dinesh Karthik who until last year was part of RCB as one of their key players.
