Royal Challengers Bangalore have won third successive match in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) after having a woeful beginning. RCB all-rounder Marcus Stoinis is of the opinion that it is the right attitude that gives the best chance of winning.

"Cricket is a type of game often there are just little things that need to be changed. For us, I think it was just the fact that once you lose a couple of games, sometimes you play to try not to lose rather than play to win. We started winning some close games as well which gave everyone confidence," Stoinis said in the post-match press conference here on Wednesday.

"So, there have not been big changes. We all know we are good players. Everyone in the IPL is good players, every team is good. I think if you just bring the right attitude to the ground, every single time, then it gives you the best chance of winning," he added.

After witnessing a six-match losing streak in the start of the IPL, Royal Challengers Bangalore are now turning things around as they won four out of their five recent matches.

Latest being their victory over Kings XI Punjab, who was unable to chase down the ginormous target of 203 set by RCB and the host won the match by 17 runs.

RCB will now visit Delhi to face Delhi Capitals on April 28.
