RCB’s jersey sponsor, PUMA, which is an athleisure brand, took to social media to reveal the franchise’s kit for their upcoming match in the tournament.

The Rajat Patidar-led side, who are currently positioned at the fourth place in the IPL 2025 points table, will hope to bounce back as they take on Sanju Samson-led RR in Jaipur.
