RCB IPL 2025 Squad: Full List Of Players And Auction Buys Ahead Of Season
The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are gearing up for the IPL 2025 season with a focus on building a formidable team. They have retained key players and are preparing for the mega auction to strengthen their squad. With a remaining budget of ₹83 crore, RCB aims to address crucial areas and enhance their core team in pursuit of their first IPL title.
Virat Kohli continues to be the central figure for RCB, following an impressive IPL 2024 where he secured the Orange Cap with 741 runs. His retention was expected, given his pivotal role in the team. Alongside Kohli, Rajat Patidar and uncapped Indian pacer Yash Dayal were also retained, forming the foundation of RCB's strategy before the auction.

RCB has strategically retained three players, spending ₹37 crore in the process. This leaves them with a substantial amount for the auction and three Right-to-Match (RTM) cards at their disposal. The team is poised to make calculated decisions to fill gaps and build a balanced squad.
