Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) had the second-highest purse sum of 83 crore going into the IPL 2025 mega auction, allowing them to purchase the player of their choice. Although the team did indicate that it intended to spend big for some players, the think tanks had other ideas in the middle. KL Rahul joined the Delhi Capitals with RCB resting their paddle at a bid of 10.75 crore, ending the rumor about his possible return. The management had declared that strengthening the Indian core was the goal before to the auctions.
On Day 1, they received bowlers Jitesh Sharma, Rasikh Dar Salam, and Suyash Sharma who had not yet been capped. The damage control was evident with the addition of Dar and Suyash, despite the fact that they had lost their favorite bowling arrangement from Eons.
On the second day, with a purse of 30.65 crore left, the Bengaluru-based teams concentrated on a combination of all-round players who were bowling and batting oriented. Their greatest choice of the day was Tim David, who would join RCB for only 3 crore. In the 2025 Indian Premier League, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, an accomplished pacer, will also wear the red jersey.
