If you haven't already, check out the live updates at the Royal Send Off page! We have a backlog of photos and videos coming up as soon as the uploads are complete :)

Please email your photos to nidhi@royalchallengers.com or to our Facebook page

At the press conference with Anil Kumble currently while the lucky 50 fans are taking photos with the Royal Challengers are enjoying snacks. He was asked some questions around expectations from South Africa, excerpts of answers summarized below)

Kumble says Coach Jennings knows South Africa well, we're facing two teams we've played before and we will be able to track the performance of the others. Plan is to stick to the basics and do the rights things we can do on the team. We're certainly banking on our experience and bowling power.... At RCB, we gel at a team and it's really shown in the last three tournaments we've played together. Playing with foreign players, is like coming back and playing with the Karnataka team, we're a team we know how to play together..

@natasha @czech when it comes to drinking, i have a tolerance of a ten year old kid, but I have noticed that people become a lot more deep, imaginative and creative when high, so "Drinks on me" offer is still on ;)

There you go. What did Kumble say? Take home message for RCBians.
“playing for RCB is like playing for Karnataka”.
He is so good at reminding people of the ‘real symbols’ in life.

It was a perfect evening for an RCB fan. Players, Press and Cocktails. Shook hands with the players, made new RCB friends, met Nidhi and Natasha( sweetest girls ever ), also i ate 15 mini mexion pizza( beat that !) PS: Kholi gave up after 4 pizzas.

Rahul Dravid...wow we travelled in the same flight to bangalore from chennai.then met him...shook hands in royal send off...spoke with him...wow thanks nidhi.but just 1 dissapointment.dravid was sitting few seats behind me.i would have been glad if my seat was next to MY GOD!:)
Nidhi and Natasha overall good work but may be it was quiet crampy and tight.
