I would love to win the trophy. I don&#39;t know how I would react if we do win the trophy one day. (But) it&#39;s getting boring to talk about it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>RCB has never won an IPL title. &quot;<strong>At the end of the day, there are things that are more special than winning the trophy. And those are bonding with the team, being part of the IPL; I mean, it&#39;s the greatest tournament in the world,<\/strong>&quot; said De Villiers, who has been with RCB since 2011 after his stint with the Delhi Daredevils for a couple of seasons.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Asked if he felt the RCB were at a disadvantage given that the games were not happening at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, the batting stalwart said, &quot;<strong>It&#39;s the same for every team. No one has home games, which really puts emphasis on adapting to different situations and conditions.<\/strong>&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"page-break-after:always\"><span style=\"display:none\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;<strong>Every game you are confronted with will be different in the conditions. The wickets will get older; you&#39;ll play different teams on the same ground, which will force you to use different strategies and tactics. The fact of the matter is, it&#39;s the same for everyone.<\/strong>&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>De Villiers, who scored 48 in the winning cause against Mumbai Indians in the IPL opener, added, &quot;<strong>I think the guys that have really made their own home grounds a fortress will have a bit of a disadvantage.<\/strong>&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>To a question that his fans have given a petition that his statue is erected at the Chinnaswamy for his decade-long association with RCB, De Villiers said, &quot;<strong>No, it&#39;s Ok. I&#39;ll just go and visit (the fans) every now and then.&quot;<\/strong><\/p>\r\n",
