The fans are eagerly waiting for the start of the remainder of the Indian Premier League 2025 as the resumption of the tournament has been announced by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). The 18th edition of the tournament will resume with the RCB vs KKR fixture on May 17, at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
Meanwhile, the players have started to move to the cities, where the matches of their teams are scheduled for the remaining part of the tournament. In the same line of events, the star RCB all-rounder Krunal Pandya and young pacer Rasikh Salam Dar returned to Bengaluru ahead of the team’s home game against KKR.
“Good to be back, some unfinished business left, let’s do it,” said Krunal Pandya in a video shared by RCB on their official X handle (formerly Twitter).
The video of Krunal Pandya and Rasikh Dar returning to Bengaluru for the upcoming home game against KKR also went viral on social media as soon as it was shared by RCB.

RCB eye top spot in points table
Speaking of RCB’s current form in the tournament, they are enjoying a brilliant run, with eight wins and only three defeats in their 11 games, having 16 points to their name. They are currently placed in the second spot on the tournament standings. Rajat Patidar’s men are coming off four consecutive wins in their last five games, including only one defeat.
In the remaining 3 league matches, RCB will take on KKR, SRH, and LSG, respectively, before the playoffs. In these games, they will aim to win as much as possible to end up at the top spot in the table to secure a chance to feature in the first qualifier of the tournament, which gives a team two chances of qualifying for the tournament’s summit clash.
