PV Sindhu added a very personal touch to the celebrations after Royal Challengers Bengaluru successfully defended their IPL title, posting a message that blended humour with genuine admiration for the franchise\u2019s supporters and its long-awaited breakthrough into sustained success. The two-time Olympic medallist, who has been living in Bengaluru in recent years, used her own relocation to make a playful point about RCB\u2019s turning point.<\/p>\n

Sindhu\u2019s message to RCB fans<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Sindhu kicked off her Instagram post with a light-hearted joke, saying she wasn\u2019t claiming to be the \u201clucky charm,\u201d but implying that once she moved to Bengaluru, RCB seemed to start lifting the trophy more regularly.<\/li>\n
  2. She then sent congratulations to the entire Royal Challengers Bengaluru setup\u2014players, support staff, ownership and, most importantly, the fans\u2014crediting the collective effort behind the franchise\u2019s achievement.<\/li>\n
  3. The shuttler also reflected on the roller-coaster of emotions supporters have carried for years, before finally witnessing consistent success, and described the feeling of seeing RCB become champions in back-to-back seasons as \u201ctruly special.\u201d<\/li>\n
  4. In a separate tribute, Sindhu singled out Ananya Birla and her family, noting that they joined the franchise\u2019s ownership group before RCB\u2019s recent run of success, and praised the quick impact of becoming owners followed by an immediate championship.<\/li>\n
  5. She closed the post by acknowledging that the franchise\u2019s story has been filled with belief, heartbreak and love, and that turning that emotional weight into consecutive title celebrations is something rare.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    A dream final\u2014and what she wanted to see<\/h2>\n

    While Sindhu celebrated RCB\u2019s triumph, she admitted there was one matchup she would have loved to experience during the season: a final between her hometown franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. She said an SRH versus RCB title clash would have been the ideal scenario, describing it as an emotionally intense dream\u2014then added that Bengaluru deserved the outcome after years of heartbreak.<\/p>\n

    Meanwhile, Sindhu\u2019s badminton update<\/h2>\n

    Off the court, Sindhu\u2019s most recent run at the Singapore Open concluded in the quarter-finals. She was beaten by world No. 1 An Se-young, after starting the campaign in strong form with straight-game wins over Putri Kusuma Wardani and Riko Gunji before coming up against the top-seeded South Korean.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
