We all have that one friend who we love to joke about and make fun of. Till last night, Royal Challengers Bangalore was that friend. However, after yesterday’s match up between two IPL winners, that position has been officially taken by Mumbai Indians.
If you’ve followed Mumbai Indians’ run throughout all the IPL seasons, you’ll know that they always start poorly but then gather momentum. And while there’s still opportunity for salvation, people couldn’t let go of their latest defeat because of three reasons. Firstly, it was the lowest score of this IPL. Then, it was the lowest score by MI ever. And to top it all off, they were dedicating this match to Sachin Tendulkar because it was his birthday.
As Mumbai Indians were sent home for a meager 87 runs, Twitter arrived to rub salt into their wounds.
1. This must sting.
Mumbai Indians not even scoring 100 on Sachin's birthday. They are paying the opposite of a tribute. #MIvSRH

Back in 2015, Mumbai Indians were in a similar scenario. However, they managed to bounce back and even win the trophy. So, who knows? Maybe this severe trolling will rekindle their spirits and help them to reach the play-offs
