IPL: Rating the overall performance of all the teams across 11 seasons

6.Rajasthan Royals (2008 champions)

Rajasthan Royals were the underdogs going into the inaugural edition of the Indian Premier League. Every year, they are considered underdogs, but their performances have been above par.

After 2008, it took them 5 years to make the playoffs when they qualified in 2013. This time they didn’t make it past the qualifier 2.

In total, Rajasthan Royals have reached the playoffs 4 times but reached the finals only once.

They have always been a team that has been known for producing young talents like Ravindra Jadeja, Yusuf Pathan and Sanju Samson. This is one of the main reasons why they have been one of the exciting teams to watch in the IPL.

Rating: 7/10

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
