'Nothing' but laughter as MI and CSK poke fun at RCB

Beating the Punjab Kings in the IPL 2025 final, RCB lifted their first-ever IPL trophy, ending 18 years of endless wait. Leaving behind heartbreaks, near misses, and endless trolls, the franchise fulfilled its long-standing dream. Riding high on last season’s success, they are now gearing up to chase another winning campaign.

Before stepping into the upcoming season of the cash-rich league, the franchise unveiled a major development as they announced ‘Nothing’ as their title sponsor. Under the deal, Nothing will enjoy title branding on team jerseys, digital platforms, stadium displays, and many other things throughout the season.

After they made the news official, the internet was set on fire by MI and CSK fans. As RCB prepares to wear jerseys sporting the name ‘Nothing,’ fans unleashed hilarious trolling with witty comments. Some of them even commented, saying, it's a relief as RCB lifted their maiden trophy before the deal.

The epic saga of RCB’s feud with MI and CSK

When Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and MS Dhoni used to rub shoulders, wearing the Team India jersey, fans used to support with their heart out. But the moment the spotlight shifts to the IPL, loyalties split and emotions run wild.

T20 cricket thrives on thrills, yet no rivalry matches the madness of RCB’s fierce battles with MI and CSK. Whenever MI and RCB take the field, the stadium roars louder than ever, with every ball delivering a fresh surge of excitement. At times, the rivalry spills beyond the boundary ropes, as fans take it to another level.

And if RCB and CSK take the field, the cricket world forgets the brotherhood between Dhoni and Kohli, where every ball writes its own destiny. From the 22 yards to the stands, the clash between the red and yellow brigades crackles with unmatched intensity. On the field and beyond, this fierce rivalry has always held fans captive.

RCB set to unveil a massive new twist

As the franchise is set to step into the IPL 2026 with a new title sponsor, this is not the only change, as something even bigger is coming up. After RCB lifted the trophy, the franchise has entered a new chapter with parent company Diageo India putting RCB up for sale. That has marked a new era in the franchise.

As the speculation was going over RCB’s next boss, the CEO of Serum Institute of India, Adar Poonawalla, has showcased a strong interest in the deal. With the sale process expected to wrap up by March 31, the cricketing world is eagerly waiting to see who becomes RCB’s next owner.
