INR 20 crore puzzle: How will RCB slice the prize pie? Bhuvneshwar Kumar answers Mr. Nags
Royal Challengers Bengaluru is the best IPL franchise at the moment. After failing to win a title for 17 years, the franchise has recorded two consecutive triumphs. The side has one of the loudest and strongest fan bases and is the third team, after the Chennai Super Kings and the Mumbai Indians, to win two back-to-back titles. The players were jubilant after the IPL 2026 final victory against the Gujarat Titans on May 31.
RCB took home INR 20 crore for winning the league. Mr Nags asked Bhuvneshwar Kumar how the prize money would be divided. “That’s something, we will be very interested to know,” the pacer said.

He also spoke about the success he achieved during the season, finishing with 28 wickets in 16 games. Speaking during the post-match interview, he said: “The trophy is the biggest prize for me and the most important thing for all of us. Even the season went well for me. There were plans, but the execution was needed, and I am glad to achieve it.”
The veteran speedster also hailed teamwork for the successful campaign in the 19th season. “You feel confident when you take wickets. The past performances also help. Everyone deserves credit. When I didn’t do well, Josh Hazlewood was there. If I was not among the wickets, Rasikh got us breakthroughs. I think we all stood for each other, and this is what you need in big games like a final,” he added.
