The Women’s Premier League is going on in full swing and it is certainly a treat a for cricket lovers to see the top women cricketers of the world indulging in cricket action in the inaugural edition of the tournament.
In the first season, there are five teams which are taking part in the league and they all have a loyal fan base but fan base of one WPL team is so pissed off with their favourite team that they themselves are trolling it. We are talking about Smriti Mandhana led Royal Challengers Bangalore which has lost its fourth consecutive match yesterday; the match was played against Uttar Pradesh Warriorz at Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai.
Alyssa Healy led UPW overpowered RCB in all the segments of the game, whether it was batting, bowling or fielding and Alyssa Healy led her team from the front as she played a blistering knock of 96 runs not out for which she faced only 47 balls and smashed 18 fours and 1 six.
The toss was won by RCB and it chose to bat first but the Bangalore team could manage only 138 runs in 19.3 overs and Ellyse Perry was the highest scorer for RCB as she scored 52 runs (39 balls, 6 fours & 1 six). Sophie Devine was the second highest scorer for the team and she scored 36 runs for which she played 24 balls and her innings included 5 fours and 1 maximum.
UPW chased the target of 139 runs without losing any wicket and with 7 overs remaining in its innings. Alyssa Healy who was adjudged as the Player of the Match got good support from Devika Vaidya (36 runs not out, 5 fours) and they both ensured that their team did not lose any wicket till the end.
RCB got trolled left and right on the social media platforms for its lackluster performance; here are some selected reactions:

Mandanna didn't know about this franchise 😔
This franchise team is there in IPL and WPL to win Kidney,Hearts,Lungs,Boti,Kaleja rather than a beautiful trophy 🏆😭Stay strong RCB fans 😹#RCBvUPW #WPL2023https://t.co/r8oNBJqOKH

Many fans are feeling bad for the skipper Smriti Mandhana and are hoping to see RCB make a comeback in the remaining matches.
