Chennai and Bangalore are all set to take on each other in the 22nd Indian T20 League match of the season on Tuesday. While the encounter between these two has always been exciting, it is not the biggest battle in the tournament. And now, the Bangalore team has given a chance for fans to take a dig at them.
Bangalore team's official Twitter handle posted a tweet before the match, where they called the Bangalore vs Chennai clash as the El Classico. "Battle of the Big Guns. It’s time for IPL’s El Clásico," the caption read.
This did not go down well with the fans as Bangalore are yet to win a title in the tournament. Chennai, on the other hand, have four titles to their name. Hence, calling it as IPL's El Classico meant Bangalore was only inviting trouble.
"Lol do not try to big up yourselves. MI vs CSK is the real Clasico. You are just forcing your way into it right now. Win a title first!" a fan reminded them.
"El Clasico used for two best teams in the tournament, that is MI and CSK Always. How many trophies has RCB won?. Praising yourself is fine but over Praise with zero trophies," another fan said.
Meanwhile, the match is set to be played at the DY Patil Stadium on the 12th of April. Bangalore has looked strong with three wins in four games. Chennai, on the other hand, has played four games but hasn't won any.
Here are some of the top tweets:

Hello @RCBTweets,
You can choose any of the following such as El Otro Clasico, El Viejo Clasico, Le Classique, Super Clasico or any other for your rivalry.
But to take El Clasico, you have to grow further!
Period.
