But I moved to Bangalore and suddenly you have won the trophy every year since. Do the maths. Huge congratulations to the incredible RCB team, the players, the staff, the ownership and the fans,\u201d Sindhu wrote in an Instagram post.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>The two-time Olympic medallist also reflected on the journey of RCB supporters, who waited years to see the franchise become one of the dominant teams in the league. She also congratulated entrepreneur <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/ananya-birla\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\">Ananya Birla<\/a> and her family, who became part of the ownership group before the team&#8217;s recent title-winning run.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/>\u201cThis franchise has carried so much emotion, madness, heartbreak, belief and love over the years, and to see it become back-to-back champions is truly special. A big congratulations to my dear friend @ananyabirla and her wonderful family as well. To become owners and immediately win a championship is some serious main character energy. What a start,\u201d she added.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/> <span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"24\"\/>Sindhu also said she would have liked to see a final between RCB and her hometown team, Sunrisers Hyderabad.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"26\"\/>\u201cOf course, a Hyderabad vs RCB final would have been the dream. SRH vs RCB would have emotionally destroyed all of us in the best way. <!-- -->But Bangalore, you deserved this. After years of heartbreak. Back-to-back champions,\u201d she stated.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"30\"\/>Meanwhile, Sindhu&#8217;s campaign at the Singapore Open ended in the quarter-finals, where she lost to world No. 1 An Se-young.
