Vijay Mallya Faces Backlash For Insulting RCB

After the 14 league games, Royal Challengers Bangalore were placed at the bottom of the table in IPL 2019 with just 11 points. Losing six games at a stretch in the first half of 12th Edition proved costly for the Bangalore Franchise. Had if RCB won one more match, It could have easily qualified for the playoffs. Virat Kohli shared an emotional message after the last league match: 'Thank you guys for all the love & support - the entire team including the fans, the ground staff & the support staff! Promise to come back stronger next year'.

Vijay Mallya took to his social media handle to express his disappointment over the poor show of RCB in IPL. He wrote: 'Always a great line-up but sadly on paper only. Devastated with the wooden spoon'.

RCB Coach Gary Kirsten stressed the need for structural changes to change the team's fortune at least in the next season. He claimed to have attained the clarity of what need to be done after his first year as the head coach of the franchise. The former Cricketer hints about some drastic changes before the next edition of the Indian Premier League.

Netizens slammed Vijay Mallya for making insulting remarks on a franchise which has showed character even after losing six games in the beginning.
