Royal Challengers Bengaluru has launched 'RCB Cares' in response to the tragic stampede during IPL trophy celebrations, which resulted in 11 deaths. The initiative focuses on fan welfare and safety, promising structural safeguards for the future. RCB proposes a fan-safety audit framework, staff training, and collaboration with IPL and KSCA to strengthen crowd management protocols, aiming to prevent similar incidents.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru have released a 6-point manifesto to address the Bengaluru stampede issue. The manifesto aims at providing meaningful action in the aftermath of the tragedy.

Former South African cricketer AB de Villiers revealed his fondness for batting with Virat Kohli during his 11 seasons with Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Their synergy led to five 100+ partnerships and two 200+ partnerships in IPL. De Villiers highlighted their shared competitive spirit and proactive approach to dismantling bowlers, recalling memorable partnerships at Wankhede and Chinnaswamy stadiums amidst electrifying crowds.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru clinched their first IPL title in 2025, marking a new era after a mega auction. Strategic signings like Josh Hazlewood and Bhuvneshwar Kumar bolstered their squad, leading to Mohammed Siraj's departure. Director Mo Bobat highlighted the tough decision to release Siraj, prioritizing Bhuvneshwar's versatility.

Mo Bobat urged RCB to honour the 11 fans who died in the IPL 2025 victory stampede, calling them part of the team's heritage. The tragedy also led to Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium being dropped as a Women's World Cup venue, with Navi Mumbai stepping in.
