Virat Kohli joins RCB WPL 2024 title celebration via video call

Virat Kohli was in splits when Faf du Plessis pronounced Royal Challengers Bangalore's (RCB) slogan ‘Ee Sala Cup Namde’ (This year the cup is ours) as ‘Ee Sala Cup Nahi’ last year. A year later, the cup belonged to RCB for the first time in their rich cricketing history. Ending RCB's trophyless run in franchise cricket, Smriti Mandhana's Bangalore side outclassed Delhi Capitals (DC) in the final of the Women's Premier League (WPL) on Sunday.

Inaugural runners-up Delhi Capitals failed to extend their winning run against RCB in the summit clash of the WPL 2024 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Unexpected finalists RCB hammered DC by eight wickets to seal their maiden T20 title in Delhi's backyard. RCB's first win over DC in five meetings ended Bangalore's 16-year wait for a T20 title. With RCB's women rewriting history in the summit clash of the WPL, former Bangalore skipper Kohli video called women's team captain Mandhana.
