Royal Challengers Bengaluru IPL 2026 Schedule: Full RCB Fixtures

The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will begin its Indian Premier League (IPL) title defence on March 28 against Sunrisers Hyderabad at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru.

The schedule for IPL 2026 has been announced, outlining RCB’s league fixtures with confirmed dates, venues and start times.

The franchise announced that it will play five of its home games at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, while the two remaining home matches will be held at Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Cricket Stadium in Raipur.

RCB’s much-awaited homecoming comes after the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium fell out of favour as a result of the stampede, which claimed 11 lives last year. The iconic venue was then barred from hosting high-level cricket by the State government and the police.

Below is the complete RCB match list for the IPL 2026 season at its home venue.
