Faf Du Plessis: Captains Faf du Plessis, Smriti Mandhana, and batting icon Virat Kohli on Tuesday unveiled the new name of RCB -- Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and its new jersey at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium here on Tuesday. The team’s new name and logo were also unveiled during a magical RCB Unbox 2024 confirming that the team will now be known as Royal Challengers Bengaluru as has been the speculation for some time now.

Celebrating the spirit of passionate and enthusiastic fans of the team -- the 12th Man Army, one of the most loyal fan bases in the world -- the remarkable event took place for the third time, and it was even more special this time, especially after the women’s team’s recent triumph in the Women’s Premier League 2024.

The unique exciting event provided fans with a memorable experience to watch their favourite stars in action live ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, with the entire team taking part in a training session, showcasing glimpses of what they can anticipate in the upcoming season.
