The 31st game of IPL 2022 happened last night at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai, where the Royal Challengers Bangalore took on the Lucknow Super Giants. RCB emerged victorious by 18 runs in that contest. However, a tweet from Lucknow Super Giants before the first ball of the match has caught everyone’s attention on social media.
LSG announced their playing XI for the match against the Royal Challengers Bangalore with a customized tweet. The playing XI image was good, but the caption drew everyone’s attention. LSG’s Twitter admin wrote in the caption: “RCB Beta Tumse Na Ho Paayega” (RCB, Kid You Won’t be able to do it: Rough Translation)
Fans did not like the tweet from the Lucknow Super Giants admin and bashed him for his comments. Former Indian cricketer Dodda Ganesh expressed his unhappiness over the tweet as well. Here’s what he wrote:
“Friendly banters are always welcome in cricket. But trolling is not done. A new team calling a team which’s been part of IPL since 2008, Beta, is not banter. Kindly make amends.”

Lucknow Super Giants also gave a reply to a fan who told RCB was their father
The LSG social media admin uploaded the image of their playing XI with the same caption on Instagram as well. Like Twitter, fans on Instagram expressed their unhappiness in the comments box.
When LSG took two wickets in the first over of the match, the social media admin of LSG gave the following reply to a fan who told him that the Royal Challengers Bangalore were their father.
“Baap re, 2 wicket already gaye. Ab kya karoge saahab.” (Oh No, 2 wickets are already down. What will you do now Sir?)
