The wait for Royal Challengers Bangalore finally ended in a new captain and a new season. In the first season of the IPL, Bengaluru, who has been waiting for 17 years after defeating Chennai Super Kings at his home Chepock Stadium, finally got success. In its second match of IPL 2025, Bangalore, led by the new captain Rajat Patidar, defeated Chennai Super Kings by a big margin of 50 runs in his house. In this way, Bangalore won against Chennai at the Chepock Stadium for the second time in the history of the 18 season of IPL. Also, Bangalore won the second consecutive win this season, while Chennai suffered the first defeat in 2 matches.

In this match played at Chepock Stadium, everyone's eyes were on whether Royal Challengers Bangalore would be able to win in the house of Chennai Super Kings this time. But this time Bangalore came up better and finally succeeded in winning the Abhed Fort of Chennai. Bangalore batsmen and bowlers played a big role in it, but the poor fielding of Chennai also supported it.

After winning the toss, when Chennai captain Rituraj Gaikwad decided to field first, it seemed that he got half the victory only then. But the manner in which Bangalore opener Phil Salt gave the team a fast start by batting in the first and second over, he put Chennai in trouble. Virat Kohli continued to struggle to play big shots from the other side, but the rest of RCB batsmen did not let the speed of the runs decrease. Devdutt Padikkal also played small but explosive innings.

Then when Bangalore captain Patidar started putting big shots, Chennai made a mistake here. The team released the catch of Patidar 3 times between the score of 17 to 20 runs and had to bear the brunt of it. Patidar gave 51 runs in just 32 balls. Then in the end, Jitesh Sharma gave 12 runs in 6 balls and Tim David gave 22 runs in 8 balls. David, with 3 consecutive sixes in the last over, took the team to a strong score of 196 runs. For Chennai, spinner Noor Ahmed was a hit once again and he got 3 wickets.
