RCB (Royal Challengers Bengaluru) Home vs Away Win Performance

Home Advantage Over Time

RCB — Home and Away Within 0.3 Percentage Points Across 14 Seasons

A season qualifies with 3+ matches both home and away · neutral venues count as away, so 2009 (South Africa) and 2020 plus part of 2021 (UAE) have no home record

RCB have won 50.0% (46 of 92) of their home matches and 50.3% (88 of 175) of their away matches. Across 14 qualifying seasons, the count was level — 7 each way, and the better side changed almost every time. The median season put 20.5 points between them. Four of their seasons had no home matches at all — every fixture was played away from their own grounds, so those seasons sit outside this comparison.

Home means a ground the club actually used as a home base that season, which is why these home totals are lower than sources that go by the scheduled home side. Neutral grounds count as away, and every ground the club has played at is listed. A win rate from fewer than 5 matches is greyed or shown as a plain count, to flag the small sample.
