Indian badminton star PV Sindhu congratulated Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) on winning the IPL title. She shared a lighthearted message on social media, joking about her move to Bengaluru being their 'lucky charm'. Sindhu also acknowledged the long wait of RCB fans for a championship and congratulated the new ownership group.
Indian badminton star PV Sindhu joined the celebrations after Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) retained their IPL title, sharing a message for the franchise and its supporters on social media.
Sindhu, who has been living in Bengaluru in recent years, began her Instagram post with a joke linking her move to the city with RCB's recent success. “RCB fans, I am not saying I am the lucky charm. But I moved to Bangalore and suddenly you have won the trophy every year since. Do the maths. Huge congratulations to the incredible RCB team, the players, the staff, the ownership and the fans,” Sindhu wrote in an Instagram post.
The two-time Olympic medallist also reflected on the journey of RCB supporters, who waited years to see the franchise become one of the dominant teams in the league. She also congratulated entrepreneur Ananya Birla and her family, who became part of the ownership group before the team's recent title-winning run.
“This franchise has carried so much emotion, madness, heartbreak, belief and love over the years, and to see it become back-to-back champions is truly special. A big congratulations to my dear friend @ananyabirla and her wonderful family as well. To become owners and immediately win a championship is some serious main character energy. What a start,” she added.
Sindhu also said she would have liked to see a final between RCB and her hometown team, Sunrisers Hyderabad. “Of course, a Hyderabad vs RCB final would have been the dream. SRH vs RCB would have emotionally destroyed all of us in the best way. But Bangalore, you deserved this. After years of heartbreak. Back-to-back champions,” she stated.
Meanwhile, Sindhu's campaign at the Singapore Open ended in the quarter-finals, where she lost to world No. 1 An Se-young. Before that defeat, Sindhu had registered straight-game wins over Putri Kusuma Wardani and Riko Gunji to reach the last eight.
