Romario Shepherd performs viral meme on RCB coach ahead of IPL 2025 match vs SRH [Watch]

Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) all-rounder Romario Shepherd recreated a viral meme during a pickleball tournament held by the franchise recently. The team couldn't train outdoors due to rain, hence they held a small pickleball tournament within the team.

The Comilla Victorians won the Bangladesh Premier League in 2023 when a reporter was tasked with asking Moeen Ali, Sunil Narine, and Andre Russell how they felt after winning the final. The players failed to understand him, and overnight, that interview became a meme, garnering views across platforms.

During RCB's pickleball tournament, the team comprising coach Andy Flower and batting mentor Dinesh Karthik's wife, Dipika Pallikal, won the final. After the match, Shepherd went to Flower and asked the question in the meme, saying:

"Coach, final game you perform, what happening."

Take a look at the video below:

The meme was also performed by the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) last season after they won the IPL 2024. Russell and Narine, both of whom were part of Comilla Victorians and KKR, had a hearty laugh during the same.

The 58th match between RCB and the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Bengaluru on May 17 was washed out without a ball bowled. To ensure that RCB's game against the SunRisers Hyderabad on May 23 doesn't meet a similar fate, the match has been shifted from the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium to Lucknow's Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium.

After the Gujarat Titans (GT), the Royal Challengers Bengaluru became the second team to qualify for the knockouts with 17 points from 12 games. They are second in the points table and would want to finish in the top two to lock their place in Qualifier 1, where, if they lose, they will have another shot at qualifying for the final.
