The “unstoppable energy” of the Indian T20 League was in full swing today, Thursday, April 16, 2026, as renowned anchor and “true style” icon Shefali Bagga made a surprising revelation regarding her team loyalty. While hosting the pre-match studio coverage for the high-octane clash between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) at Wankhede Stadium, Shefali—a well-known, die-hard supporter of Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB)—stunned fans with her change of heart for the night.
In a “magical” moment of fan interaction, Shefali candidly stated, “Waise to mai RCB ko support karti hu lekin aaj Punjab ko support karungi” (Usually, I support RCB, but today I will support Punjab). Her “boss energy” was evident as she explained her desire to see a “pure” and fresh competition this season, previously mentioning she would love to see a new team like Punjab or Delhi lift the trophy. Dressed in a “classy” ensemble for the broadcast, Shefali’s “humanity and care” for the sport’s spirit resonated with viewers who have been following her “next level” match analysis and player interviews throughout the 2026 season.
As MI sets a target of 196 for PBKS, Shefali’s “unstoppable” support for the Kings adds a layer of “pure vibes” to the evening’s drama. Whether she’s praising young sensations like Vaibhav Sooryavanshi or discussing team strategies, Shefali Bagga continues to bring “gorgeous” energy to the “cinema jagat” of cricket, proving that her love for the game is as “timeless” as her fashion sense.
