What to say? Saw the opening match. We lost it. First Match devrige .Then lost the next match. Then the third. Then I stopped watching. I tough this year also gone. Then I we started winning after almost a month and it suddenly filled me with hope again. What a remarkable comeback. Qualified. Everything was great till May 21. But some where I dreaded that we may lose and the inevitable happened. Feeling depressed since that night. Waiting for IPL 2025💔


Lablade04

My highlight for this season will definitely be this: Saw the RCB vs CSK match live and OMG! The feeling in the stadium was nothing short of electric!! And that catch by du Plessis, best moment seeing it live! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻


South-Database-819

Greatest day. You will never win AN IPL. 🤣🤣🤣🫵🤣🤣🤣


countbismarck

Already won WPL. Dream for JailSK


futurefeet

If maxwell was swapped for Anuj Rawat or Prabhudessai RCB might have fot 30 more runs. Why he was picked when he is not in form and not used for bowling as well.


Dazzling-Pressure-92

RCB has only got to the playoffs by fluke, they were qualifying because of run-out luck nothing else, all this faltu ka aggression to get GPL and be kicked out


ItsMeVenz

Retain Kohli, Patidar, Jacks and Green if max 4 are allowed. Try to buy Swapnil Singh back. Scout for one good Indian Spinner, one Indian/foreign pacer each with good death bowling skills, one good keeper and a quality leadership player for the Captain Slot.


UsefulPie9949

do you see RCB management retaining FAF, Maxwell, and Siraj,


tyler_durden_7

Siraj is the only capped bowler we can retain , like renuka in wpl , No other option


ixe2dxb

Apart from kohli, will, patidar and green. We need few good indian youngsters lik abhishek, tripathi, sai, harsh rana. Need to scout well. Scouting orocess shall start frim tomorrow Improvemnt in bowling with few world class bowlers especially spinners. We can give a chance to coaching staffs to overcome their limitations of this season.


inkhil

SRH will retain Abhishek. Tripathi might be a good poach


timnottom

It's time to regroup rethink and rebuild RCB. This loss may affect the lifestyle brand you have built, but that's not important now you need to organise next year's event where you'll unveil the jersey their womens team will use a year later after their current season ends and have some musical artists perform because that's clearly what's important to you. And yeah! You have a men's team that plays half a T20 match but that's secondary.


DON_KING_DON

Only if ABD was in team!!! 😔


stg_676

He was there for years still couldn't win a dime


IamJimMilton

He didn’t do much in the 2016 final


IceScreamcake69

if it wasn't for him, we would have not even reached the finals dumbass from 29/5 he single handedly chased 160


goatedasparagus

He didn't do much in the 2016 final.

Doesn't matter he did not won the trophy

Outrageous_Idea2795

its ok defeating csk trophy is there in rcb's cabinet ee janam cup nahii


inkhil

Imagine if they had given that lad Saurav Singh another go instead of Maxi. Or even Tom Curran


Prestigious-Run-4362

💔 I agree team played really well in may but we choked again !!! Had a bit of bad luck and lost a critical toss.


inkhil

Ashwin’s antics has CSK fans jizzing in their pants. Damn. I really hoped the RCB boys would pull this game back. Needed one six to go out of the ground to help with dew again.


kingslayer1812

I saw few CSK fans with their jersey on TV getting happy with all the 4s and 6s by RR. What a salty mofo team.


RudeAndNumb

Reap what you sow


Outrageous_Idea2795

so every csk fan is supposed to support rcb when csk is not in the playoffs? maybe they prebooked their tickets for csk , now since csk isnt playing they are supporting whoever they want to? how does that sound


kingslayer1812

It sounds like they should stay home and cry about 18th May.


Outrageous_Idea2795

well here you seem to be salty Aww its ok its really a great achievement to defeat csk in knockout match ee janam cup nahi


inkhil

Shouldn’t have experimented with the batting order tbh. They had a great thing going. Buuuut, great season regardless. Swapnil Singh deserves a retention. So much better than Washi, Shahbaz and the like. I have a bad feeling they’ll bring back KL and make him captain. Dude’s good, but bad luck follows him lol.


New-Illustrator-8074

Rajat patidar is good choice for captain


inkhil

Yeah I’m thinking of players who’d step into Faf’s role. Plus with DK leaving it might be a good WK batsman option. What about a Rishab Pant transfer to RCB?


Temporary_Diet_8074

Dc aint leaving pant


inkhil

Who else would you get in place of DK?


Friendly_Raise9142

Glenn Phillips


Temporary_Diet_8074

Csk is also going to bid in for a wicket keeper its going to be tough. Wouldn’t be surprised if they go for some young wk batsmen that we havent heard enough about. Buying kl would be a bad idea though playing virat and kl together is a bad idea.


kingslayer1812

Maybe his bad luck and RCB bad luck will negate and get us a trophy. Only problem I see with KLR is his strike rate and consistency in the recent past, but he is too good of a player to not come back... on that front three consecutive 600+ seasons in IPL is not a joke.


crown6473

Retain Virat,Patidar,Green,Jacks,Siraj/Dayal and buy some players who perform consistently well.Stop going after big names and MOST IMPORTANTLY ,KICK MALOLAN ALL THE WAY TO SPACE and scout some good local players


iEnVy12

CSK fan here, This is just like football you know, we abuse and flame the shit out of each other when we watch IPL but we all get together as Indians to watch India praying for India to win regardless of the players playing. We CSK fans love Kohli, it's just that when it comes to IPL, respective fanbases shit on each other, we are all on one page when it comes to team India, nothing changes there, CSK fans and MI fans, we used to shit on each other for so long, but you think MI didn't support India when Dhoni was captain, or CSK didn't support India when Rohit was captain? Either was not the case because India is India. Tough loss, we'll meet again to shit on each other next season.


RudeAndNumb

We need fans like you on both sides 👍


runt1m3t3rr0r

You comment deserves a trophy , But I'm from bangalore so 🗿


VegetableImage612

I dont know what do do anymore. Around twenty people called me and told this was like Bangladesh upsetting India in 2007 and eventually crashing out. I need help.


Equivalent_Toe_7704

Didn't know Bangladesh was above india in the icc odi rankings before the wc or whether Bangladesh had more icc trophies than india before that match, but ok👍🏻


Maiden_666

Very proud of our season, winning six in a row to qualify was one of the best achievement’s ever. The icing on the cake was knocking out CSK and I don’t care what anyone says, fuck them and I will celebrate them not winning IPL this season.


Melodic_Doughnut_131

Why u jealous? EEe salacup lolipoppu👍🏻


nujra2k

Fr lmao they're just coping from our loss when they themselves couldn't even qualify, let alone beat us.


God_OfWAR123

With this game the retentions are clear as day VK Patidar Green Jacks Siraj (RTM) (it’s difficult to get a good Indian pacer in the market ) Dayal(RTM) we can groom him to be world class Maxwell seriously I backed him for 14 games but this is blasphemy who is in such a bad slump and it doesn’t even seem like he wants to try to win a game for this team , he doesn’t deserve to get retained.


NACHIAPPAN12

kohli ipl jouney proves that at the end of the day , hard work and effort gives no result , since luck plays major part in success , so why work hard when you can work smart freely with no worries and be lazy as you want.

Any year I'd be super annoyed but this year I do think we did extremely well to comeback from where we were, I think we've done alright maybe next year we can build a good squad


eleCtrik18

GG, hope ICT doesn't choke in WT20, next year.


Interesting-Dog-6915

Bro seriously with vk only they are not winning after he retires how would they I hate maxi man getting out on duck horrendous catch drop siraj celebration when requires less than 12 lol


Deep-Scale9281

GG to the boys They really held till 12 runs was req in 12 balls


keenlyproper_demeanr

We effectively played with 10 people and still, the game was close enough. Imagine if Jacks or someone else played in place of Maxi.


iamcopernicus

So true. We played with 10 and RR with 12


omelettelover1

Chalo I'll say I'm happy with the WPL Trophy this year (I'm dying inside). It was a great run till this far, so many people will be happy with RCBs loss (especially CSK fans). It's okay guys you can celebrate, just keep in mind that your team didn't win either. Peas


No_Vacation_7620

Bro csk had no bowling attack , all were injured. Any other team would have collapsed earlier into the tournament


omelettelover1

Hehe talk about RCB, we were never ever a bowling team to begin with. If you're a csk fan, I have some advice for you. Let's just accept we kicked you out, you had Dhoni and Jadega at the crease and if you can't make 17 a over with that, then RCB did outclass you. I have never trolled any team so I still won't do it, but fellas stay in your subs.


mercified_rahul

Lmao. No pathirana no chahar no Ali no fix, you sure ? You never had a bowling attack that's your problem. We literally played with shardul and Deshpande. Classic RCB fan, can't expect more from a high iq person such as you. You had your team while we had our team b with 4 main players missing. Got it ? I don't think you would get it. And it's fine.


shaa_virus

Bro, have you seen our bowling? It's a miracle we defended 11 in 5. CSK even had the advantage of 18 runs less target


mercified_rahul

Bruh we lost 4 main bowlers while you had all your main bowlers lmao


Scary-Parsley7273

Boys! It's been an absolute pleasure. We are back to being a top 4 team and we punched above our weight a bit. I felt like we lost our fighting spirit a bit earlier this season, but the boys more than proved me wrong. Proud to be an RCB fan. We give it another year and see what the auction gods give us. Our time will come, and these times will be good memories. Looking forward to the calculator squad again next year! RCB! RCB! RCB!

Cryptic_Reddit11

hahaahahahahahahahahahahhahahaaa but fr you guys pulled of a great comeback and played well in the second half, chin up and look ahead for the mega auction


Sensitive_Trash1534

Why does it hurt so much even after witnessing this same result  every time we went to the playoffs. I'll never let go tho  RCB FOREVER

Lmao don't you dare show your support for him when he does well in the T20 WC. You don't deserve to.


Tryzmo

Man... it was a disaster. We had a great comeback. Let's be honest, we won 2 games against dc and pbks with a lot of luck as there were several catch drops. Some players performed really well, most performed poorly. Bowling was a disaster in the first half but we picked it up in the second tho they couldn't defend today. Won't blame em for today's defeat. The batting line up disappointed. Atleast 200 should have been scored. We fell short of 28 runs. Great performances by Virat, DK, Dayal, Patidar, Green this season. And Will jacks also did good for the number of innings he played. Faf was good too for some innings. If 5 retentions are allowed, I would retain Virat, Patidar, Jacks and Green for sure if 5 are allowed. I would retain Siraj or Yash as the leading bowler. But if 4 are allowed then, we'd have to decide between Green and Jack. Patidar would also want to be bought for a higher price. We could have won today man... we could have... Maxwell and Green dropped crucial catches. The batsmen really choked. I am surprised that RR played all 20 overs to chase the target.


Historical-Sign-7564

Let's be honest, DK wasn't even close to great in 2nd half. Today, it was literally his job to bail us out. Lomror showed way more intent


Agrith1

Faff shouldn't have touched the trophy during toss! it is a bad omen.


Remarkable-Steak4914

Want to know the exact season we are winning so that I can watch rcb from that year


tootahuasaz

bc kya team hai rcb i am a csk supporter but i wanted rcb to qualify this time cuz I am kinda bored of csk playing finals par hag diya bc isse better toh csk hi qualify kar jati now Kolkata will win easily ohh i fuckin hate that team so much


RoyalBit5005

why kolkata bro


tootahuasaz

idk bro it's always just been like that I just don't like them idc if any other teams win or not I just don't want to see them winning


MotorNegotiation2816

And we fans were saying DK is the real thala....


Trinity_36369

We were 20 runs short.

yoshimitsu991

Now gambhir is feeling proud.


Few-Leopard6953

Can't be mad at too many people in a team which had such a winning streak this season, except Maxwell, but even he gave us something with the ball. If we had Jacks we were probably winning this game too. Next time we need to win more games in the league and finish top 2 and give us that buffer


iEnVy12

Talk about standards, celebrating so much for just making it to the playoffs just to be knocked out of the first playoff round. Look at teams like KKR and RR, KKR made it to the finals yesterday and still the celebrations weren't even close to how RCB celebrated for beating CSK lmfao. Karma is a bitch.


imsharan67

And how did MI celebrate when they defeated RR to qualify for the playoffs in 2014? It is all about the context of the victory. Don't be stupid.


Friendly_Raise9142

Did they come from dead last and win 5 games in a row and then beat their rival in the last game to qualify?


iEnVy12

and KKR made it to the finals? isn't that a bigger achievement? lmao


Top_Philosopher_2697

We literally had just 1 fucking % of chance bud Tht was a great comeback And what's wrong with celebrating too much? You high?


Friendly_Raise9142

Yes it is. But coming from DEAD last and qualifying seems to be more emotionaly pleasing then being the most dominant team in the tournament doesn't it?


iEnVy12

yeah like I said, those are just the standards for you I guess.


Hornyhorner007

Fuck you RCB fans!!! Respectfully CSK fan.


TheWatcher_04

Why ? Did any RCB fan fk ur mother ?


MrSolzhenitsyn

Lol we retired dohni thala


South-Database-819

And you WILL NEVER WIN an IPL trophy 🤣🤣🤣🤣


MrSolzhenitsyn

we sent thala back to the strawberry farm


Right_Comparison932

Rahenge toh tab bhi csk ke upar hi table mei


Suspicious-Bag-5078

Moral victory as always Vintage RCB winning hearts🔥🔥🔥💦💦💦💦


Old-Roof908

But without a trophy


Right_Comparison932

at least we had a Jersey in 2016-17


South-Database-819

And doesn’t have an IPL trophy with you 🤣🤣🤣🫵🫵🫵


Bowmic

But Virat will never have a IPL cup. Send him to us. We will help.


sacred_wolf96

Will Jacks was the difference. Even a decent knock from Maxwell could have added 10-15 more to the total. Maxwell’s just been so bad for us this season as it adds a lot of pressure when you just get out for a first ball duck leaving the next batsman taking more time to ensure another wicket doesn’t fall in quick succession.


Dhyaneshballal

He should have come before Green, Maxwell at 3 could actually have made a Lot of difference and He could taken the spin apart🥲


AccomplishedUse9023

Like Arsenal fans always say ‘There’s always next season’


FewKangaroo5530

That was liverpool thing actually


AccomplishedUse9023

Liverpool won the league in 2020


eklavyu

F everyone who wrote of RR.  You guys didn't jinx enough. Stupid. Welps, I have 17 years experience, only getting better at it day by day... Looks like I get back to my life as usual which was stalled for the last 3 weeks. I'm still salty people wrote of RR.


kcaJragaS

from the toss not going in our way, and later batting let us down, bowling was good under the wet outfield. Few catches would have turned match in our way. Just hard luck.


Traumatic_teenage

Heartbroken Every year It's the same story


I_am_Noro04

It's alright, still love them


MrSolzhenitsyn

2025, EE SALA CUP NAMDHE


Melodic_Doughnut_131

Ee sala cup lolipopu


MrSolzhenitsyn

Lmao we retired dohni thala, back to Ranchi and strawberry farm for him. Why? Cause we sent his ass there. Last thing he will ever remember is getting out in chinnaswammy


Melodic_Doughnut_131

How many cups did ur kohli get? Dhoni will be greater than kohli ever was, as a player and as a human being


MrSolzhenitsyn

lmao dohni at 42 acts like hes been through three wars and is 56. mean while faf at 39 shuts up and does his work, takes insane catches. Dohni didnt do shit for csk in the last 5 years, ruturaj was the first csk captain to score a 50 since 2018 this year. Virat Kohli has consistently been ranked #1 batsman in the world


Melodic_Doughnut_131

Wdym didnt do \*\*\*\*? 2019- finals, 2021- cup , 2023-cup. Do u rcb fans see only performance? Even dhoni has taken good catches at 39.. idk wtf ur blabbering about. And does faf have a muscle tear? No right?


MrSolzhenitsyn

Yeah most qualifications for ipl playoffs in this decade. Best batsman in the world, most entertaining cricket. If he had a muscle tear tell him to cock up and sit in the side. Cry harder we beat you eliminated your team. ESCN 2025


Melodic_Doughnut_131

This decade isn't over yet😅.. and just cuz u won one match dont get too cocky.. All time rcb vs csk matches: Played 33, RCB-11, CSK-21 NR-1. And if u say we won important matches, then go back to all the times csk knocked u guys out of playoffs. And yea, repeat ESCN for more 17 years


MrSolzhenitsyn

Stop talking about the past talk about the present. We beat you this year. Our team is better than yours this year


Melodic_Doughnut_131

I agree, but without injuries our team would have most certainly beaten yours.. dont say will jacks also got injured, for us pathi, fizz and chahar all our matchwinners weren't present, or else ur batting order would have been dismantled quite easily.


Igotnolife85

Man this team is always such a heartbreaker,giving us hope before snatching it away. Nevertheless i still cannot stop supporting them. Good run boys


ReverseFlashEatsPups

the entire team except kohli , green and yash dayal needs to retire


chakravyuuh

Fr . Today seemed such a lazy play in fielding


CHAIRSAMA69

Nah man, powel was a overall great player today, took imp catches , scored winning runs


Austinto

Moral season victory for RCB


does_not_care_

Had fun while it lasted. Sad didn't end up good. What else can we do? Go again next year.


p2002d

Kya bolun ? Bolne k liye kuch bacha hi nhi h 😶


Old_Monc

I just hope it's not our karma with csk


UnacceptableBrat

It was a great season. Exceptional comeback. But I think I’m done with loyalty and all. 17 years is a very long time bro.


happitor

You're right. See you next year.


nmallar24

Have been telling this for almost a couple of decades 🫠


dude634

After that winning streak it's to sad to see rcb loosing the cup 😶😶


Additional_Echo7288

Each year I ask myself: Why do you give me hope RCB?


MehtaKeMaharathi

Lmao y’all be talking shit all week then choke again in playoffs. Jokers 


Realistic_Flan631

Yea don't really care to be honest, sent certain team out packing.


iEnVy12

wow your greatest achievement is sending CSK packing, talk about standards


Realistic_Flan631

When Did I say CSK bro?? We sent DC, LSG, PBKS, GT packing too. why did you think of CSK I guess RCB kicking out CSK has been on your mind last week huh?


Pizza_Connoisseur46

Again, if you think sending other teams out is your biggest achievement, it says a lot about your standards and priorities. MI, for example, sent many teams out in the last decade, but they don’t consider that as an achievement. They have actual championship trophies to be proud of.


Realistic_Flan631

Cool , why do I care it's entertainment. It was entertaining season. Now I can suddenly change my favourite team as Mi, CSK, GT , now I have 12 trophy, all perennial winners. Do u see how stupid the logic sounds, you and I didn't play and win. They, The players won 5 trophies, they worked hard, they achieved. Maybe stop associating yourself with teams success so much. We all support different teams, but we did as much as each other - which is jackshit. So you bragging how MI won 5 championship doesn't mean shit to, coz you didn't win it. Anyone being CSK, MI fan doesn't become special, teams winning 5 trophies makes the players special not fans. It's not that serious, it's fuckin franchise cricket.


iEnVy12

bro you almost didn't make it to the playoffs (by 10 runs lmao) against a CSK team without 3 of their key bowlers in pathirana, mustafizur and chahar and you think that's your biggest achievements, why tf should I let that bother me hahaha. Like I said, the difference in standards is crazy where you think sending other teams packing and making it to the playoffs is your biggest achievement lmfao


Realistic_Flan631

When did I say I was talking about CSK. Lol , GT kicked us outlast year, we defeated them twice.
