The Women’s Premier League (WPL) team, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) have created history by defeating Delhi Capitals (DC) by 8 wickets in a thrilling final encounter.
For RCB, this victory is especially noteworthy since their men’s team has never won the Indian Premier League (IPL), placing third three times between 2009 and 2016.
The likes of Sophie Devine, Ellyse Perry, and Smriti Mandhana displayed their batting prowess in a tricky run chase. In the first inning, DC were bowled out for 113 in just 18.3 overs, while RCB reached the target despite having eight wickets and with three balls remaining.
The WPL team’s victory is evidence of the strength of female athletes. In addition, the league’s popularity and the backing of the fans have demonstrated that it is an equal competition to the men’s IPL.
As the nation rejoices, brands flock to congratulate the WPL team on its unprecedented triumph and amazing performance. Let’s look at some of the firms that have congratulated the team on social media for its first T20 championship in a long time.
