RCB Schedule IPL 2026:Â Defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their first match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 season on Saturday, March 28, at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. The Chinnaswamy hasn't hosted a high-profile match since 11 people died in a nearby stampede during IPL's title-winning celebrations in June 2025. As a result, RCB's matches in Bengaluru are subject to a BCCI clearance, which will take place on March 13. Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar and co. enter IPL 2026 after guiding RCB to their first-ever title in the 2025 season. (IPL 2026 FULL SCHEDULE)
