Just sometime after the announcement of the IPL 2020 schedule, Royal Challengers Bangalore, captained by Virat Kohli, went on to reveal their IPL 2020 fixtures in what can be called a rather unique manner. RCB took to Twitter to share a video of all their IPL fixtures and highlighted all the teams which they would face at IPL 13.

However, RCB went on to use the blue logo for their match vs Rajasthan Royals, which is the old one. Royals were quick to spot the error and went on to troll RCB online with a hilarious meme on Twitter. RCB shared a photo of Bart Simpson writing on the blackboard, 'I will use the correct logo of RR.'

Not ready to take thing lying down, Royal Challengers Bangalore made a comeback with another post on social media. RCB shared a photo of batsman Sanju Samson, wherein he is seen sporting the old blue logo on his helmet. RCB captioned it, 'So you’re saying this is the incorrect logo?'
