1. Royal Challengers Bangalore will stay at Waldorf Astoria, Dubai for IPL 2020

A majority of the RCB squad has landed in Dubai, and they are quarantined at the Waldorf Astoria hotel of Dubai. Kings XI Punjab is staying very close to them as both the franchises have picked their locations in Dubai's Palm Jumeirah.

Royal Challengers Bangalore have been the unluckiest team in IPL history. The Virat Kohli-led outfit has a strong group of T20 stars every year, but they have failed to win a single IPL trophy in the last 12 years.

However, with some good depth in the squad this season, RCB will hope to go all the way and clinch their first IPL trophy.
