Royal Challengers Bangalore is one of the big franchises in the IPL tournament. No words can describe the fan following and craze the team has. When even RCB plans in Bengaluru, the city turns red with flags and flexes cheering for the team. RCB players enjoy a big following.
Despite all this, Royal Challengers Bangalore is yet to lift an IPL trophy. The play bold army came very close to the trophy but fell short in the nail-biting final. It's been fifteen long years since RCB is a part of the tournament. But not even once the team won the final trophy.
Recently, the Women's Premier League (WPL) was launched so that women players would also have an IPL-like setup. When the Royal Challengers Bangalore team was announced with a few star players, fans hoped that the women's team would end the long wait and fulfill the Ee Sala Cup Namde slogan.
But the reality is different. The Star-studded Royal Challengers Bangalore lost the first two games that too by a big margin. Fans are not happy with the performance of the team and they are hoping that the team will make a comeback in the next matches.
If we draw a comparison between the Men's team and women's team there are a few similarities. Both teams have a strong batting lineup. However, bowling is a big letdown for both teams. The same happened in yesterday's match. Bowlers failed to put pressure on the opponent team. As a result, RCB was crushed by nine wickets by the Mumbai Indians team.
Despite having strong hitters like Smriti Mandhana, Ellyse Perry, and others, RCB barely managed to score 155. They were all out in just 18.4 overs. In return, the Mumbai Indians batswomen chased down the target easily.
Richa Ghosh was the top scorer for RCB with(28), followed by Shreyanka Patil (23), Smriti Mandhana(23), Kanika Ahuja (22), and Megan Schutt(20). Mumbai Indians chased the target in just 14.2 overs. Hayley Matthews was the star of the team with a quick half-century. She made a century partnership with Nat Sciver-Brunt and was awarded the player of the match.
