WATCH: Royal Challengers Bengaluru eye catching initiative for fans ahead of IPL 2025

A unique and heart-touching initiative by Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). Cricketers of RCB received autographed jerseys signed by the fans. Normally, fans try to get autographs from their favorite players, but RCB management thought of a different way so that the bond between fans and cricketers becomes more lasting.

In the initial part of the video, in a black and white scheme, Virat is heard saying that they have been giving autographs for 18 years; now the fans will give them autographs.

Then we can see one by one the star players of RCB, including Kohli, Phil Salt, Rajat Patidar, Suyash Sharma, and many others, with their respective jerseys printed with their fans' autographs. Rajat Patidar, the skipper of Royal Challengers Bengaluru for IPL 2025, loved the concept so much that he would like to frame the special jersey autographed by the fans.

RCB spinner Suyash Sharma said, "Thank you for all the love and support of the 12th man army." Senior bowler of the team Bhuvneshwar Kumar said the same: "I love it. Thank you, RCB fans." The heart-touching video Royal Challengers Bengaluru released ahead of their clash against Lucknow Super Giants at the Ekana Cricket Stadium.

RCB, currently with 17 points in 13 matches, has a chance to move into the top 2 by defeating LSG today. If the team donned in red and black is able to defeat Rishabh Pant's team, then Rajat Patidar and Co. will have 19 points with their name.
