RCB vs RR Live Score, IPL 2025: Still reeling from a chastening home defeat to Punjab Kings, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) struck back inside two days, humbling Shreyas Iyer’s side on their own turf. The rapid rebound preserves a curious pattern: after eight outings this season, Faf du Plessis’s men remain unbeaten in five matches on the road yet winless in three at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Historically, RCB’s home success rate hovered below 50 percent, and three consecutive losses have dragged it further.Adding salt to Bengaluru’s wounds is the sight of ex‑RCB heroes thriving against them. KL Rahul’s calm finishing, Mohammed Siraj’s incisive new‑ball bursts, and Yuzvendra Chahal’s guile have each proved decisive in inflicting damage on their former franchise.Thursday night’s visitors, Rajasthan Royals, arrive nursing problems of their own. The 2008 champions have slipped to four straight defeats, repeatedly squandering dominant positions. Captain Sanju Samson’s injury and stand‑in leader Riyan Parag’s struggles with both bat and tactics have amplified the slide.Yet Rajasthan field familiar faces capable of turning the screws in Bengaluru. Leg‑spinner Wanindu Hasaranga, once RCB’s strike weapon, and big‑hitting left‑hander Shimron Hetmyer both have points to prove. Overseeing them is hometown icon Rahul Dravid. Still moving gingerly after injuring his leg in a local KSCA league game, the mentor knows Chinnaswamy’s idiosyncrasies better than anyone. Dravid admitted, “We know we must play well to be still alive in this tournament. You need to play well in critical moments, and it hasn’t happened to us. Every game from here on is very important, and we’ve got to try and play the best cricket we possibly can and hopefully get the result.”
