Prediction on RCB's 2018 Jerseys!

As I do every season, here is my prediction on the RCB jerseys for the 2018 season of the Indian Premier League! This prediction bases my previous post on the RCB's Brand House which itself is based on the branding for the stands taken from the stadium layout sourced from the ticketing portal.

As stated earlier, Zeven continues its association as the kit manufacturer for RCB and it is likely that the design from the last two seasons will remain unchanged. The illustration below depicts what the jerseys might look like in my opinion.

Potential RCB Jerseys for 2018

The front branding would either be Eros Now or HP. One of the two will have the spot on the right chest. There is also a possibility of these two brands switching places for home and away jerseys as shown in the illustration above.

According to my prediction, the following will be the slot-share for the associated brands.

• Front - Eros Now / HP
• Right Chest - Eros Now / HP
• Leading Arm Upper - Jio Telecom
• Non-Leading Arm Upper - Domino's Pizza
• Non-Leading Arm Lower - Duroflex Mattresses
• Back - Duraguard Cement

The RCB logo will be on the left chest; the VIVO IPL logo will have its mandatory lower leading arm spot. Apart from these, Zeven and 7UP will be seen on leading limb and non-leading limb of the trousers respectively.

'The Royal Attire' series will resume after the jerseys are officially unveiled! Stay tuned!

The RCB Brand House of 2018!

The tickets for RCB's home matches are on sale from this moment. (Click here and book right away!) However, the motto of this blog is not to serve as an advertising media and here I slip to the focus of the blog! As usual, the layout of the stands in the M Chinnaswamy Stadium is displayed in the ticketing portal and the stands have been named after the sponsors of RCB for this season. Have a look below.

Layout of M Chinnaswamy Stadium

The followings brands are associated with the stands in Chinnaswamy.
A Stand - Eros Now
B Upper - Jio
B Lower - Jio
C Upper (Grand Terrace) - HP
C Lower - Duraguard
D Corporate - Wrogn
E Executive - Duraguard
G Upper - Duroflex
G Lower - Dominos
M1 Stand - Dominos
M2 Stand - Jio
M3 Stand - Wrogn
M4 Stand - Duroflex
N Stand - Eros Now
P1 Annex - Eros Now
P1 Stand - Eros Now
P2 - Eros Now
P3 - Eros Now
P Terrace - HP
P Corporate - Duraguard

While Jio and Duroflex Mattresses have remained to be associated with RCB as well as the stands they are named after, there are a lot of newcomers to the house. With Eros Now and HP branding linked with the majority of the stands in the stadium, it is highly likely that one of these will end up as a principal sponsor and takes the prominent real estate on the front of RCB jersey with another going to the chest spot. Dominos is another new entrant which will most likely decorate the upper spot on the non-leading arm.

Duraguard Cement branding will don the back of RCB jerseys this season.

As reported earlier, Duraguard Cement will don the back of RCB jerseys and Wrogn will be seen on the players' headgear once again. Zeven continues its association with RCB as the official kit-maker. 7UP is also likely to remain in the RCB Brand House for 2018.

The Tenth Year of the RCB's Jersey! (Episode 10 : 2017)

Before my blog gets buried deep in the internet of things, I am officially returning on this and making the fifth post of this year today! This was something that had to be posted during the IPL this year but has been delayed to this point where we are only four months away from the start of the next season. Before getting into the exciting mood of new things that are bound to happen in the eleventh season, let's get back to the tenth anniversary of IPL that happened in 2017.

The team in Home apparel for 2017.

As usual, I tried to predict the jersey design for this year in the blog post I wrote in March of this year before IPL-10 started. (Read it here!) The prediction turned out to be 'almost true' with the retention of Zeven's base design of 2016; Gionee making its way to the belly and an unaltered Kingfisher logo on the back. Though the other sponsors were accurate in the prediction, the placement and colour masks of the logos on the sleeves slightly changed in the real one.

THE HOME JERSEY

THE AWAY JERSEY

As you can notice and I predicted, Gionee acquired the spotlight this year with their logo placed on the prominent front part of the jersey. The IPL 10th anniversary logo was given its mandatory slot on the sleeve and surprisingly, Britannia's very long association saw an end this year. The slot used by Britannia was taken by Duroflex Mattresses in this season.

Virat Kohli and AB DeVilliers in Away jerseys.

LYF+ Smartphone was replaced by Jio Telecom, a flagship brand from the same parent company. Two versions of Jio logo have been used on the jerseys, the one with red background on the Home and Game for Green jersey and the one with blue background on the Away jersey. As stated earlier, Kingfisher and Lloyd continue to enjoy their real estate on the right-chest and the back of the jersey respectively.

The Game for Green jersey remained very similar to the Home attire only with the primary colour changed to a lighter shade of green. Also, the twitter handles of the players which were used on the green jerseys traditionally by RCB were dropped and replaced with actual names similar to other games in this season.

The team in the green apparel for 2017.

Apart from jerseys, there were no changes in the trousers with Zeven and 7UP retaining their slots. The headgear continued to display Himalaya Men logo on one side while a new entrant WROGN, Virat Kohli's own brand made its way to the back of the caps replacing Acer from last year.

The team in the Home jersey for 2017.

This season was hugely disappointing for the ardent fanbase of RCB. I would call it '10 Years of Badluck' and eagerly hope for the next season to be ours! Massive changes are expected to happen for the 2018 season for the team as well as the tournament. I expect lots of changes on the RCB jerseys too, with a huge possibility of change in the apparel sponsor as well.

Stay tuned for more! 

Official Sponsors & Partners of RCB for 2017

The corporate backing of RCB for 2017 has been unveiled on the official website. Have a look below.

The 2017 batch of sponsors and partners for RCB.

Founding Partner: United Spirits Limited
Principal Partners: Gionee Smartphones, Lloyd Air Conditioners, Kingfisher Premium
Associate Partners: Jio Telecom, Karnataka Jungle Lodges & Resorts, Himalaya Men, Duroflex Mattresses, Gatorade, Wrogn, Zeven, Boost, 7UP, Tissot Watchers, Radio Mirchi, DNA Networks

Stands at M Chinnaswamy Stadium have been named after few of these brands and I had previously noted this in this post. I took a further step and predicted the RCB Jerseys for 2017 using the sponsors featured on stadium stands and illustrated it in my last post.

As per this official list updated on the official website, the brands that get their share of real estate on playing jerseys may include the following.

Belly: Gionee
Chest: Lloyd Air Conditioners
Back: Kingfisher
Leading Arm 1: Jio
Leading Arm 2: IPL Logo
Non-Leading Arm 1: Karnataka Jungle Lodges & Resorts
Non-Leading Arm 2: Duroflex Mattresses
Leading Leg: 7UP / Gatorade / Wrogn / Boost
Non-Leading Leg: Zeven
Headgear: Himalaya Men

Prediction on RCB's 2017 Jerseys!

Following my previous post on the new sponsors which were guessed based on the naming of stands at Chinnaswamy stadium, I now present my predictions on the RCB Jerseys for 2017. What's changed and what's retained? Read on.

Zeven is manufacturing the jerseys for the second year and the home-away system would continue. The system is likely to be adopted by the other teams this time. As noted previously, we might have Gionee Smartphones on the belly while Lloyd Air Conditioners would retain the chest area.

As usual, the IPL tournament logo will go on the leading arm. This season's logo is a commemorative logo made to celebrate a decade of IPL.

The 10th Year Anniversary Logo.

The possible new entrants Jio Telecom, Duroflex Mattresses and Karnataka Tourism's Jungle Lodges & Resorts branding might get their slots on arms along with the IPL logo. The back would remain unchanged, featuring the Kingfisher branding.

Check my predictions for home and away jerseys below:

The possible RCB home jersey for 2017.

The possible RCB away jersey for 2017.

A new episode in 'The Royal Attire' series will come up soon once the launch officially takes place before the start of the season. Stay tuned!

Who's in the RCB Brand House for IPL10?

The tickets for RCB's home matches went on sale a couple of days ago and the portal to book the tickets displays the map below. It is noticeable that the stands at Chinnaswamy Stadium have been named after brands which could be nothing but the RCB's sponsors' batch of 2017!

Layout of M Chinnaswamy Stadium.

As you've noticed, we have Gionee, the Chinese smartphone maker in house this time, probably going as a main sponsor on the jersey! The A Stand, P1 Annexe, P1 Stand, P2 Stand are named after Gionee. At this moment, I have no news about Gionee's disassociation with KKR.

We also have Jio, the telecom company that took the whole nation by storm. Jio appears on B Upper, B Lower and M2 Stand. Last year's association with LYF Smartphones+  appears to be replaced with Jio; the same might be making its way on the sleeves of RCB, MI and RPS jerseys.

We can also notice Duroflex Mattresses on M4 Stand and G Upper Stand, which probably might have replaced Britannia slot on the jersey.

Another interesting observation is the naming of G1 Stand Lower, G2 Stand Lower and M1 Stand after Karnataka Jungle Lodges. The Karnataka Tourism Department might be sponsoring RCB for the 2017 season, probably getting featured on the jersey as well. As there is no news on Tata Motors continuing as a sponsor, I pick the slot Tata Bolt and Tata Zest were previously featured on to get replaced with Jungle Lodges & Resorts.

Apart from these newcomers, the past brands that continue their association with RCB include Kingfisher (named on E Executive Lounge, P Corporate, C Upper and C Lower) which goes on the back of the jersey, Lloyd Air Conditioners (named on Pavilion P3, Pavilion Terrace and Fan Terrace N) which would featured on chest and Himalaya Men (named on D Corporate and M3 Stand) which would be seen on the headgear.

Zeven is manufacturing the apparel again as per the two-year contract and would get featured on the trouser on one side while the slot on the other side might be taken up by 7-UP for this year too.

I am expecting all these brands on which the stands have been named after to get their share of real estate on the jersey. Stay tuned for my final prediction and illustration of the jerseys!

A New Livery for the Royal Attire! (Episode 9 : 2016)

The new season is here and everything about RCB looks very fresh and new too! Firstly, my apologies that I kept you waiting this long. Though I had wished to write about RCB’s visual treats for 2016 long ago, few of my commitments hijacked my blogging time. Anyways, here is the much-awaited episode of the RCB Jersey Evolution!

My blog had previously tried to figure out what the jersey would look like for this season of the IPL and many of my predictions did not come true. However, those which actually turned out to be true were the introduction of ‘Home’ and ‘Away’ system with two separate jerseys and the placement of few sponsor logos.

The Jersey Launch

This season will witness maximum changes on the RCB jersey compared to the previous ones. Adidas is no longer the kitmaker for RCB and it has been replaced by Zeven, a newcomer to the arena. Zeven is a sports goods manufacturer with the greats like Mahesh Bhupathi and Ravi Shastri in its corporate unit.

The jerseys have a totally refreshing look with black and red donning the maximum area. Gold has been used only for piping and blue has been completely eliminated. This new look has been designed by Michael Foley, well-known among the sportswear designers. The home and away jerseys swap primary and secondary colours excepting the collar which remains same for both. Interestingly, the sides beneath the arms and the extended patching on the trousers with the black design on home apparel turn grey on the away strips, not red. The names and numbers for the players are printed in gold, which is the only gold-dominant area, unlike previous designs.

THE HOME JERSEY

THE AWAY JERSEY

Moving to the commercial part, Huawei which rested on the belly spot has gone and has been replaced by Hero Cycles. I am not a fan of the white background this logo contains. I feel the logo should’ve been white with no background. The chest area is held by Lloyd Air Conditioners, another newbie to the RCB family. Britannia and Tata Motors (now as Zest) continue to place themselves on the sleeves while LYF Smartphones is another new addition on the sleeve. Kingfisher, as usual, dons the back but has nothing below it unlike previous seasons’ ‘Packaged Drinking Water’ (2014) and ‘Premium’ (2015). Few players do not endorse the liquor brand due to religious reasons however, packaged drinking water would’ve avoided this! The jersey maker Zeven and 7UP are seen on trousers while Acer and Himalaya Mens’ (initially ‘Pimple?’) are placed on the headgear.

Team RCB in 2016.

EDIT: SUNDAY, MAY 15, 2016
The 'Game for Green' jersey wasn't very different except for the primary colour being green. The only change was the usage of black colour for name and numbers instead of the usual gold. As always, twitter handles of the players were used in the place of names at the back. The team used did not use the green caps for unknown reasons and played with usual red caps. The batting and keeping gear was red as opposed to previous seasons' gold variants.

This season's green match was an absolute blinder with numerous unforgettable moments. The dangerous duo of Ab deVilliers and Virat Kohli scoring centuries each and RCB winning the match with a mammoth run margin.

Stay tuned for a new series on Indian Jerseys!

Huawei out, Nags returns and a #Bold Prediction!

Tomorrow is the official launch of the RCB Jersey for 2016. However, I am here to provide a final update on the prediction. It appears that Honor or Huawei may have discontinued their sponsorship deal and might not get featured on the jerseys. The footer on the RCB website which displays the sponsors do not show Huawei. Hero Cycles is listed next to the USL which means, they are the principal sponsors. It also makes me think they have reserved their spot on the jerseys.

Meanwhile, Mr.Nags has come back to RCB camp and here is the first video if the 'Insider' series for 2016.

The video blurs out the previous sponsors, thus clearing that they aren't being a part of the RCB family this year. Notice the blurring of Huawei on Nags' jersey.

Also, in this tweet by RCB, the sponsor logos on the jersey have been photoshopped and removed.

The Final Prediction
This is my final prediction before the official launch of the jersey. There is a possibility that Kingfisher would still be at the back and 'Acer Computers' might take the place of 'LYF Smartphones' on the sleeves as seen below. Most of the other things might be same.

A bold prediction!

What do you think? Would my design be close to the official one? Will I be surprised? I'll reveal it within next 24 hours! Stay tuned!

The fresh new batch of sponsors for 2016

The new team of sponsors have been listed on the official website of RCB and they are as follows.

The 2016 batch of sponsors and partners for RCB.

Now, this makes me predict one of the sleeve and back sponsor that I couldn't in my previous post.

I guess 'Hero Cycles' or 'Kingfisher' would get the back slot. The one of the three sleeve advertisement would be 'LYF Smartphone' or Hero, if it doesn't get the back. 'Acer' is also a contender for the sleeve spot.

The trousers would get '7UP' and the caps and helmets might get 'Pimple', 'Ola' or 'Zeven'.

Final Predictions on RCB's 2016 Uniforms

This is a final attempt at predicting the RCB uniform for 2016 season of the Vivo Indian Premier League. I though of giving a go at designing this after my previous post where I have talked about the jersey icons featured on the official fantasy league of IPL. These predictions are based on the icons as well as the previously released promotional images for advertisements. 

The RCB Jersey Icon

The IPL logo might be scored with a thick and smooth white outline. This is being followed on the jerseys of other teams revealed so far. The part of advertisement space above the tournament logo on the sleeve would be taken by the 'Tata Motors Zest'. The other sleeve would have 'Britannia' as one of the two advertisements and the other one is still unknown. The chest will have 'Lloyd Air Conditioners' on the right and the newly unveiled RCB logo on the left. The belly real estate would be donned by Huawei's mobile phone brand 'Honor'. There is nothing known about sponsor on the back, a possibility exists for 'Kingfisher Packaged Drinking Water' 

I would like to see the kit without blue, however, the jersey icon on the fantasy league website shows blue. My prediction as per this icon would be something like what's below.

Red & Blue Version

If I render my suggestion into what's designed above, the output is something like the image below. I feel black would fit into RCB's current colour scheme followed in the logo.

Red & Black Version

These are only my predictions and may or may not match with the official version of the jersey scheduled to be released in a couple of days. I shall be covering the jersey launch in detail. Stay tuned!

The Royal Attire - Episode 8 : 2015

This is the final episode of this series as of now. The next episode will have to wait till the official launch of the jersey for 2016. The 2015 season of the Pepsi Indian Premier League witnessed major changes in the attire of RCB. Reebok no longer sponsored RCB and Adidas replaced it to become the official kit maker. 

Official launch of 2015 RCB Jersey.

The jersey looked very average and was evident that importance was not given much on the designing of elements. The gold used was too yellowish, which scrapped away the royal feel from the past jerseys.

For the first time, a non-Mallya brand got featured on the chest. 'Midea Electronics' took the place of previously decided McDowell's spot if a source can be believed. The belly was retained by Huawei, A new sponsor, 'TGS Constructions' gained a spot on the sleeve. Few previous sponsors including Britannia, Tata Motors Bolt and Kingfisher remained on the jersey.

Team RCB in 2015.

The names and numbers at the back remained gold. For the Game for Green jerseys, the same gold was maintained for names and numbers for the first time. The white lettering were made black to increase visibility. A coloured version of Huawei logo was used on the belly and everything else was the same.

The green version looked slightly better than the usual red version in my opinion. As the kit sponsor was Adidas, it was expected a better design would be made for this season. But the industry giant failed to deliver. This was an average product from a company like Adidas.

RCB in Game for Green attire for 2015.

The signature three-stripe design from Adidas was missing on the jersey. However, this was included on the official replica / retail jersey that was available for public. Reasons were unknown but it was a decision from the management which is revealed in the official documentation found on Issuu. Further, refer this documentation that show the finalized official designs of RCB 2015 attire.

The 2016 kit sponsor is Adidas as well. I hope Adidas won't repeat the mistake of producing a jersey below par. We have to wait for the official jersey launch that is scheduled to take place on 7th of April. I shall be covering this event live on the blog. Stay tuned!

The Royal Attire - Episode 7 : 2014

The Pepsi Indian Premier League 2014 had RCB change almost everything about the design language adopted for their jerseys. Reebok continued the kit sponsorship, a new design was made, the tertiary colour blue was dominant on the secondary gold. The sleeves were made completely blue for this season. The gold ratio was reduced. A brighter red was used for the base.

The names and numbers were printed in a different, glittering version of gold. A new array of sponsors became a part of RCB family in 2014. For the first time, a non-Mallya brand was given the belly spot. Huawei became the principal sponsor in 2014. Royal Challenge was advertised on the chest as 'Royal Challenge Sports Drink'. On the back, Kingfisher was advertised as 'Kingfisher Packaged Drinking Water'. For unknown reasons, liquor wasn't advertised on the jerseys. Britannia Biscuits, Tata Motors Bolt and Fortune Constructions were among the associate sponsors who found their place on sleeves.

RCB Players in 2014.

The 'Game for Green' jersey was better than previous versions, with not many changes, except for a single line 'Huawei' logo on the belly and the names and numbers being printed in blue and outlined in white. Twitter handles continued to be displayed for this season too.

This jersey was better compared to all previous Game for Green jerseys. The shade of green used wasn't too light or too dark, it was just perfect in my opinion.

This was the last season in which Reebok manufactured kits for RCB. The kit sponsor and many other things got changed for next season. Stay tuned to know!

Exclusive: Britannia to continue sponsoring RCB for 2016

In a tweet, Britannia has revealed its brand, 'Britannia 5050' to be the Official Snack Partner of the RCB for 2016.

— Britannia5050 (@Britannia5050) March 31, 2016

As the image shows a placeholder jersey for RCB, the sponsors confirmed to appear are Britannia, Tata Zest, Lloyd Electronics and as predicted by me in a previous post on this blog, Huawei Honor.

The official lauch for 2016 jersey would take place in the first week of April. If things go as I wish, I could be giving you a live and detailed updates about the new jersey. Stay tuned!

The Royal Attire - Episode 6 : 2013

Though major part of the design was retained from 2012, the Pepsi Indian Premier League 2013 had RCB wearing slightly modified attire. The manufacturer for this year was not revealed on the jersey, as the 'Reebok' spot on the sleeve was used up by 'AXE Deoderant', a new sponsor for RCB then. I had to confirm that Reebok was still the kit sponsor myself, when I was window shopping in a mall!

A major modification was the collar which was made gold with a blue piping, extending to the buttoning area below neck. All other elements were retained from previous season. 'Royal Challenege' re-entered the back space this year. The names and numbers were blue and the numbers were outlined in white.

Team RCB in 2013.

The 'Game for Green' jersey was the same too, with a green base. The designers rectified their mistakes from the past and implemented usage of black for the sponsor logos and letterings, thus increasing the visibility of these elements.

I don't have a very supportive opinion on this shade of green. If my suggestions are take, I would like to go for a drker shade of fresh green, on which even the white logos and letterings appear as legible as they appear on the red version.

RCB in 'Game for Green' match of 2013.

The next season witnessed several major changes in the design of the jersey and the sponsors. Stay tuned for the nect episode!

The Royal Attire - Episode 5 : 2012

The design used in 2011 was retained for the DLF Indian Premier League 2012. There was no change in the manufacturer and the sponsor logos placed on the sleeves. The base red was made slightly brighter.

The chest area acquired by 'Whyte & McKay' in 2011 was replaced with 'Royal Challenge' and the belly area remained to be filled up by 'McDowell's No.1'. The back was also assigned to the same liquor brand. This time, both the numbers and names had a white scoring.

RCB Team in 2012.

For the 'Game for Green' version of the jersey, a cooler shade of light green was used as a base. Everything else remained the same. Interestingly, RCB became the first sports team in history to use the players' twitter handles for the names displayed at the back.

Though the white letterings and logos had a reduced visibility on the lighter green base, it was not decided to make either the jersey dark or use black for the letterings. Only the blue names and numbers had a great visibility.

RCB Team in the 'Game for Green' match of 2012.

2013 season saw a few changes as well. I shall write about that in the next episode. Await!

The Royal Attire - Episode 4 : 2011

The design language adopted for 2011 season of the DLF Indian Premier League was a total overhaul on the previous designs. An addition of tertiary blue colour was the highlight of this new design. Reebok continued to manufacture the attire for the team.

The base was the usual red. The ratio for the secondary colour gold on the jersey was increased largeley, extending to the sleeves. A red piping was used on the sleeves. A portion of blue was introduced on the shoulders and sides. Numbering was made blue with a whit outline and the names were printed in blue too.

'McDowell's No.1' was featured on the belly and 'Royal Challenege' was put on the back. For initial few matches, the McDowell's logo appared in two lines, later was changed to appear in a single line. The chest logos were the same as the two previous seasons. The kingfisher logo on the sleeves was put with the transparent background for this season. The manufacturer and the tournament logo were black. A new sponsor, 'White Mischief Vodka' was given a place on the sleeve.

Team RCB in 2011.

RCB launched an environmental campaign 'Game for Green' in this season and would wear a green jersey in support of this for one match of the season. This green jersey was all the same as that of the normal jersey, only red being replaced with green and inclusion of a specially made 'Game for Green' logo.

The usage of gold colour for names and numbers, white for sponsor logos on the light green base reduced the visibility greatly. No steps were taken to avoid this.

Team RCB in 'Game for Green' match in 2011.

RCB used the same jersey again for the Nokia Champions League Twenty20 season of 2011 with changes in font and tournament logo.

Nothing much changed for next season. Still, there are few things to be known. Stay tuned!
