Bengaluru Stampede: How Does BCCI Plan To Avoid Crowd Disasters? |First Sports With Rupha Ramani

In the aftermath of the tragic stampede in Bengaluru, which claimed 11 lives and injured several others, the IPL and RCB are now facing intense scrutiny. With state authorities distancing themselves from the incident, all eyes are now on the BCCI and IPL Governing Council to take responsibility and implement strict norms to prevent such chaos in the future. Rupha Ramani breaks down how the current IPL structure limits the board's oversight after the tournament ends, why RCB is at the centre of the blame, and what possible regulations the BCCI is now considering—including mandatory safety protocols for post-season events. From a social media frenzy to serious lapses in crowd control, this has become one of the darkest chapters in IPL history. Can the league recover from this? Will the BCCI impose stricter rules on franchise celebrations? Also, find out about the fallout from a day that should have been remembered for joy but turned into a nightmare.

Also on the show, Kagiso Rabada is eyeing a redemption following his doping suspension. Before the WTC Final between Australia and South Africa, Rabada served a month-long suspension. While Rabada was criticised following the incident, he responded by taking five wickets in the first innings of the WTC final. Can he take South Africa to their maiden senior ICC glory? And FIFA's American dream seems to be failing. The focus now shifts to co-hosts Mexico. Before the 2026 event, Mexico is renovating their iconic Estadio Azteca. But with tensions surrounding the drug cartel, feud with US President Donald Trump and backlash over stadium renovations, can the country deliver?
