'Just pull off the signage and try' - Simon Doull's hilarious suggestion to RCB for winning at home

The Royal Challengers Bengaluru recently faced a defeat at the hands of Delhi Capitals in Match 24 of the Indian Premier League 2025. This meant their second-consecutive loss in a home fixture of the ongoing season of the cash-rich tournament.

Meanwhile, Simon Doull, proposed an absurd concept for to implement after their recent loss at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru meant they lost their 45th game at the venue in the history of the IPL. This marked the most losses by a team at their home ground in the same tournament. The cricketer-turned-commentator hilariously suggested that RCB should relocate from their own dressing room to the one allocated to the away team.

"I think they should take all the signage down from the dressing room, and move it in the other one. Just change dressing rooms! Go away from the home dressing room, jump into the opposition one, when the opposition turns up, they're like, ‘hang on a minute, it’s the other one! Little things. It might just be a change of scenery. It sounds so silly but if anyone can do it, it's one of these franchises. Just pull off the signage down and try," stated Doull while speaking to Cricbuzz.

We'll have a chat with the curator: Dinesh Karthik

Current mentor and ex-RCB wicketkeeper-batter, Dinesh Karthik, hinted at the pitches in the first two home games of the season as being tough for batters to obtain high scores. He also mentioned that the management will speak about the same to the curator.  

"I think the way T20 cricket is, the more runs there are, the better it is for the broadcaster, the better it is for the fans. They all like to see boundaries. In the first two games, we have asked for good pitches. But it's turned out in this way where it's been challenging to bat on, for sure. We will obviously have a chat with the curator. We trust him to do his job, and we will try and do the best of what we can," added Karthik.
