Among all the chaos we are facing in 2020, one event that the whole country is looking forward to is this year’s IPL which is scheduled in UAE and will start from Septemeber 19. This time, IPL experience will be very different as there are matches without spectators and the viewership on TV sets and online platforms is expected to be maximum. Knowing this, the franchises have become super active on social media and are posting all the updates regarding their matches to stay connected with their fans.
Several franchises have posted the videos of players preparing for the IPL and as soon as the schedule for the matches got final, each team posted about their own matches and Royal Challengers Banglore RCB got trolled while doing so.
Some IPL teams are more frequent than others in changing their jerseys and logos and RCB by mistake posted an image with the old logo of Rajasthan Royals. For those who don’t know, in 2019, RR had changed the color of its jersey to pink from blue and the color of the logo was also changed to white.
In RCB’s post, the old blue logo of RR was used giving a chance to RR to troll their counterpart.
“With the schedule for the Dream11 IPL announced, which fixture are you most looking forward to, 12th Man Army?” RCB wrote in their tweet.
