The IPL 2025 away matches have been victorious for RCB but they continue to experience troubles in their home games. RCB have won four out of six contest victories while competing as a unified team yet they have yet to achieve victory at their M Chinnaswamy Stadium base during the current tournament. Its short boundaries combined with toss dependency continue to make the M Chinnaswamy Stadium a challenging venue for RCB to defend high scores as they demonstrated against Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans. One RCB star’s recent remark to reverse the home struggles generated such amusement from Phil Salt that he couldn’t contain his laughter.

“Getting four wins now away from home, it really feels great. Hopefully, we can continue this at home as well. To be honest, it is about time we start doing something there as well,” Padikkal said in a chat with Phil Salt after the match.
“We are actually playing some good cricket. I think in time we will win there as well,” Padikkal further added.

“It is a matter of time. I don’t think that we have done badly there. We train there more than anyone else, we play there more than anyone else—it’s a matter of time that we get it right and give fans something to cheer about,” Phil Salt quipped after the match.
Salt began RCB’s innings against 174 by scoring 33-ball 65 which later transitioned to a Virat Kohli (62) phase where he stabilised the chase. Salt completed his fifty in 28 balls while forming a 92-run partnership with Kohli before Yashasvi Jaiswal caught his shot brought up by Kartikeya at midwicket. Body: The pair of Kohli and left-handed Padikkal created an 83-run stand until the match finished with fifteen balls remaining.
