In anticipation of their crucial encounter with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), fans of the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) organized a bike show to express their support. RCB is set to face CSK in the 68th match of the IPL 2024 at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday, May 18. This match is critical for both teams. A win or even an abandoned match would secure a playoff spot for CSK, who are five-time champions.
However, RCB’s path to the playoffs is more complex. Currently, RCB’s Net Run Rate (NRR) stands at 0.387, while CSK’s is higher at 0.528. For RCB to advance, they must not only defeat CSK but also surpass their net run rate. This situation has heightened excitement in Bengaluru, with fans showing their fervent support. Recently, a video of RCB fans organizing an early morning road show went viral on social media.
