RCB franchise played its first ever game with green jersey back in the 2011 edition of IPL when they locked horns with now-defunct Kochi Tuskers Kerala. Chasing 126, RCB won the game by nine wickets thanks to Tillakaratne Dilshan (52*) and Chris Gayle’s explosive 44 of just 156 balls.
In their previous game in green jersey back in 2020, CSK won by eight wickets chasing a total of 146 set by Bangalore. Ruturaj Gaikwad scored a match-winning 65* for Super Kings. The colour green has not been lucky for RCB historically.

Their next victory would come in 2016 against Gujarat Lions, a match known for the memorable Virat-de Villiers show, a 229-run stand that powered RCB to 248/3 in 20 overs.
