Royal Challengers Bangalore partners Uber in Bangalore
MUMBAI: Taking the cricketing experience for fans in Bangalore to the next level by transforming how they get to watch and experience their home team in action, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Uber have entered into a first-of-its-kind partnership.
RCB, known for its innovation and focus to deliver the best experience to their fans, has not only been the first to make the entire stadium fully WiFi enabled and solar powered, it has now taken another step in ensuring that commuters can get to and from the stadium conveniently. With this association, every RCB fan can leave their cars and worries about navigating traffic and parking behind and simply Uber it to support their team at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.
RCB VP, commercial operations and cricket academy Russell Adams said, “We are delighted to associate with Uber for a one-of-a-kind partnership in our endeavour to provide an unmatched viewing experience for our fans. I am hoping the vast legion of RCB fans will benefit from this winning partnership and ride responsibly and take an Uber to and from the Chinannswamy Stadium to cheer the team.”
“Partnering with Bangalore’s home team, Royal Challengers is truly exciting for Uber. Our goal is to bring safe, reliable and convenient rides to Bangalore and this partnership goes a long way in delivering an amazing experience to RCB fans. With all the parking hassle that comes with game days, we want fans to enjoy the game without any worries,” said Uber GM Bangalore Bhavik Rathod.
Users can request an Uber at the push of a button and an AC car will arrive within minutes to take them to the stadium for as low as Rs 7/km.
For a few lucky fans, Uber also has a bunch of match tickets to give out before every game, besides some signed official RCB swag and an opportunity to meet the players.

G-Shock launches GA-2100CM series with camouflage design
New sand and grey variants priced at Rs 10,995 each in India.
MUMBAI: Time just got a little more tactical and a lot more stylish. G-Shock has unveiled the GA-2100CM series, a fresh update to its popular GA-2100 line, bringing a camouflage twist to one of its most recognisable silhouettes. For the first time in the 2100 series, the watches feature G-Shock’s original camouflage pattern, subtly embedding the brand’s signature ‘G’ motif into the design. The move signals a shift towards more design-led storytelling, blending rugged functionality with fashion-forward detailing.
The new series introduces two colour variants sand (GA-2100CM-5A) and grey (GA-2100CM-8A) extending the model’s appeal across both streetwear and outdoor-inspired aesthetics. Built around the brand’s signature octagonal bezel and hybrid analogue-digital display, the watches retain a clean, modern look while adding layered visual depth.
Under the hood, the GA-2100CM continues to lean on performance. It features the Carbon Core Guard structure for durability, while maintaining a slim, lightweight profile suited for everyday wear. Functional elements include world time across 31 time zones, a 1/100-second stopwatch, countdown timer, LED light and 200-metre water resistance.
In line with evolving material choices, select components use bio-based resin, pointing to a gradual shift towards more sustainable design without compromising on toughness.
Priced at Rs 10,995, the GA-2100CM series is available across Casio India stores and online platforms.
As watch brands continue to balance utility with identity, G-Shock’s latest drop makes its intent clear, durability may be the legacy, but design is the new frontier.
