The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 season is underway. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) have breezed past the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Things have kicked off for RCB on the right note as their title defence starts. But an RCB batter doesn’t lead the Orange Cap race, aka the most runs column.
