Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) gets immense support from fans in the IPL. Despite not winning a single trophy, their fan following is larger than that of Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) who won the trophy in 2008 and 2016, respectively. On social media platforms, the franchise has the support of 25.5 million fans.

Of all social media platforms, RCB has the largest number of supporters on Instagram (9.6 million). Discussing their fanbase on Twitter and Facebook, the franchise has got 6.4 million and 9.0 million, respectively. With these numbers, RCB is the third most followed team of the cash-rich league.

This year, their loyal fans will expect the Royal Challengers to quench their thirst for winning an IPL trophy. So far, renowned cricketing personalities such as Rahul Dravid, Anil Kumble, Daniel Vettori, and Virat Kohli led the franchise but couldn’t get a title. Last year, the team management assigned the captaincy task to the South African batter Faf du Plessis.
