Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, IPL 2026 opening match LIVE Streaming: Defending champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru play against Sunrisers Hyderabad in the opening game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. RCB finally broke their title drought with a win over Punjab Kings in the final last season. The side will now aim to bag the trophy for a second consecutive time, something only Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings have been able to do in IPL history.
RCB’s star Josh Hazlewood will miss the game as he is currently recovering from an injury, and a similar situation applies to SRH’s regular captain, Pat Cummins.
In Cummins’ absence, Ishan Kishan will be leading the team. Under his captaincy, Jharkhand won their maiden Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy title. Following this, the southpaw was roped into the Indian team, where he grabbed the opportunity with both hands by playing some terrific knocks, including a fifty in the T20 World Cup final.
