IPL 2022: Rating Performance Of All Teams Out Of 10

Chennai Super Kings – 6/10

There were lots of ifs and buts within the team management of CSK. For the first time, the team looked unsettled based on their captaincy choice. Ravindra Jadeja who started out as captain was asked to step down midway. By the time MS Dhoni was back again, CVSK had a lot to do to reach the last four. However, Dhoni was back to his best in the last few games as captain but their players did not stand up.

Mumbai Indians – 3/10

The five-time IPL champions performed way below par than their normal standards. The Rohit Sharma led-side lost as many as nine games and failed to identify a perper paying combination. Given that they performed so badly in IPL 2022, it will be interesting to see how they come back in IPL 2023.

Kolkata Knight Riders – 5/ 10

The IPL 2021 finalists finished seventh on the points table in 2022. They too performed way below expectations. Shreyas Iyer failed to live up to his expectations as the new Kolkata skipper. The side made as many as 21 changes throughout the season which is safe enough to say that they were not at their best this season.

Punjab Kings – 3/10

Punjab Kings had yet another disappointing season. Yet again in the IPL, they finished sixth on the points table. There were many individual flashes of brilliance in the team but they did not perform as a unit. This is where skipper Mayank Agarwal failed to inspire the team after he was retained by the franchise and also named captain.

Sunrisers Hyderabad – 5/ 10

SRH lost their first two games but won their next five and they found it incredibly tough to buy a win. They performed well in patches and their skipper Kane Williamson had no form with the bat It has been a story of what-ifs for the 2016 IPL champions.

Delhi Capitals – 6/10

This IPL campaign for Delhi was a sign of Pant’s inexperience still as an IPL captain. The pressure of captaincy did show on his batting as he failed to score a single fifty this season. They fall behind in must-win games and failed to string two back to back wins consistently in the season. Delhi, safe to say, had a below-par season.

Royal Challengers Bangalore – 5 / 10

RCB managed to get to the final four for the third straight year. However, after managing to win the Eliminator, they lost the Qualifier two to bow out of the season. It was again a season full of promise which failed to deliver. 15 seasons on RCB are still dreaming of their first IPL title.

Lucknow Super Giants – 8/10

KL Rahul had a better group of players to lead in LSG than what he had at PBKS. They won some good matches and delivered some consistent performances overall. However, as a group, they failed to deliver in the crunch games which included the Eliminator against RCB. Lucknow lost against all the teams who reached the playoffs of IPL 2022.

Rajasthan Royals – 9/10

The Royals made it to their first IPL final since 2008. 15 seasons on and the team fought its way through to their second IPL final. On their way, they played some good cricket and some ordinary ones at times. However, Sanju Samson as skipper was able to bring the best out of the lot.

Gujarat Titans – 10/10

They won the title in their very first season in the IPL. Gujarat Titans’ campaign was a perfect example of teamwork and hard work at the same time. The team had eight different players who were nominated as Man of the Match in different games. Hardik Pandya’s leadership potential came as a surprise and gave the Indian team a massive option for the future.
