KL Rahul, Delhi Capitals Hand RCB Unwanted IPL Record After Chinnaswamy Humiliation
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) continued their poor home run in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, registering their second successive defeat at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium following a loss to Delhi Capitals (DC) on Thursday. The Red and Gold outfit has looked like a different team this season, with their middle-order and bowling making contributions that give hope for a maiden trophy run. While they have looked unstoppable away from home, with three big wins against defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and five-time champion teams Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI), they have registered two back-to-back losses after posting totals in the 160s at Bengaluru.
On Rohit Sharma Not Retiring From ODIs, Ricky Ponting's Clear Verdict: "Goal In Mind..."

Barring the ODI World Cup, Rohit has won all ICC titles while captaining India. He came agonisingly close to laying his hands on the 50-over world title at home in 2023, only to lose to Australia in the final.
