Royal Challengers Bangalore defied expectations and secured a spot in the playoffs by defeating defending champions Chennai Super Kings. Despite a slow start to the season with just one win in their first 8 matches, RCB turned things around and won six matches in a row to silence their critics and secure a place in the top four.
Faf du Plessis and his team started to figure things out in the second half of their games, and everything began to come together for them. They won six matches in a row, proving their critics wrong and securing a spot in the semi-finals.
Shreyanka Patil, a key player in the RCB women’s team and part of the WPL title-winning side this year, responded to trolls who mocked the franchise when some fans started searching for scenarios that could have helped the team reach the playoffs.
“There is a 1 % chance.. and sometimes that is good enough.” To all of you who laughed at us when these images were being circulated, it ain’t too late! Jump onto the RCB train, you’ll be in for one crazy ride!!! This Team #RCB,” Patil wrote on X.
