New Delhi: Rajasthan Royals (RR) will take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the 28th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Sunday. Rajat Patidar will continue as the skipper of the TCB team, while Sanju Samson will lead the Rajasthan side in what will be their homecoming game of the ongoing season.
