Another individual highlighted the unwavering passion and affection of the people of Bengaluru towards cricket and RCB, terming it as truly inspirational.  Online conversations buzzed with admiration and joy as users shared their happiness and excitement about the team's incredible win.

RCB's triumph in the WPL final sent shockwaves through the cricketing world, as they clinched the coveted title with an emphatic eight-wicket win over Delhi. The team's remarkable journey to the championship included a remarkable victory over defending champions Mumbai Indians in the Eliminator before securing a decisive win against DC in the final showdown.

Former RCB Men's captain Virat Kohli extended his heartfelt congratulations to the winning team, hailing them as 'Superwomen' on social media. Kohli also connected with RCB Women's captain Smriti Mandhana via video call to convey his praises and support in the aftermath of their historic win.
