Royal Challengers Bangalore Match Dates IPL 2021: Check Out The Full Schedule For RCB

Royal Challengers Bangalore will start their campaign for a maiden IPL title when they take ton defending champions Mumbai Indians in the season opener on April 9.

Royal Challengers Bangalore will start a fresh campaign for a maiden IPL trophy when they take on giants and defending champions Mumbai Indians in the season opener at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on April 9 (Friday). RCB have reached the finale of IPL thrice but had to contend with the runners-up position all three occasions.

Last season, the IPL was shipped outside India due to the then prevailing coronavirus situation in the country. As a result, UAE played host to the entirety of the season with the matches being played across three venues in Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Sharjah. RCB had an impressive season as they finished fourth to make the playoffs but lost to Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Eliminator.
