Riana Lalwani – The Super Over girl
The Super Over girl whose pictures are making rounds of the internet, her name is Riana Lalwani, and she seems to be enjoying all the attention she is getting. Riana was supporting KXIP as she was cheering the team from the stands and after close to five hours, her favourite team finally managed to defeat one of the strongest teams of the tournament.
Interestingly, her bio also reads, “that super over girl.” She has even shared a hilarious meme in her Instagram stories.
This is not the first time that the photos of the female fans in the stadium have gone viral. Similar things had happened during the last two IPL seasons as well when the spectators were allowed to watch the games.
