Emotions have run high and low for the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) franchise as the men’s and women’s teams have had such different runs of luck. The guys at RCB have been fighting tooth and nail for the illusive trophy since the first season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2008, despite suffering disappointments and close calls year after year.
The RCB Women’s squad, however, wrote their own fairy story yesterday by beating Delhi Capitals Women in a nail-biting final to win the WPL 2024 Trophy in just their second season of competition. The supporters were elated., The franchise finally got its much-needed win with this victory. The eruption of revelry serves as a moving reminder of what an anticipated moment it was for the RCB fans.
Fans were on the edge of their seats during the nail-biting final match between RCB and Delhi. The scenario seemed to be set for a dominant win after Delhi’s blistering start, which saw them race to 64/0 in the first inning. On the other hand, Sophie Molineux’s spell-binding performance changed the game, as she took three vital wickets in the space of an over. It was an epiphanic stroke of genius that caused Delhi’s world to crumble.
The spin bowling trio of Shreyanka, Asha, and Molineux helped RCB tighten their grip, making it difficult for Delhi to escape. Batting cautiously and managing wickets well helped RCB overcome obstacles throughout the chase. In the face of increasing pressure, Devine, Mandhana, and Perry executed a flawless finish.
Vijay Mallya Congratulates RCB Women For Winning WPL 2024 And Gets Trolled
The former RCB owner, Vijay Mallya tweeted: “Heartiest congratulations to the RCB Women’s Team for winning the WPL. It would be a fantastic double if the RCB Men’s Team won the IPL which is long overdue. Good Luck.”
The “King of Good Times,” Vijay Mallya, was embroiled in a scandal that rocked India’s financial scene. The extravagant lifestyle and Kingfisher Airlines owner got himself into some trouble with the law owing to his increasing debts and allegations of financial misbehaviour. The failure of Kingfisher Airlines, which left thousands of workers underpaid and lenders demanding their money, was the beginning of Mallya’s collapse.
Mallya escaped to the UK to evade prosecution after he was accused of embezzling billions of dollars and failing to pay debts. The subsequent extradition fight brought attention to gaps in India’s judicial system and prompted inquiries about responsibility in high-stakes business transactions.
Heartiest congratulations to the RCB Women’s Team for winning the WPL. It would be a fantastic double if the RCB Men’s Team won the IPL which is long overdue. Good Luck.
