Leaders Online Desk : RCB vs CSK : Faf du Plessis-led Royal Challengers Bangalore have created history in IPL 2024. They became the first team in IPL history to qualify for the playoffs after losing 6 of their first 7 matches. This is the biggest comeback in the history of the tournament. No other team in the IPL has been able to achieve such a feat till date. Kohli's team beat five-time champions CSK by 27 runs in the 68th match of the IPL to reach the play-offs.
IPL 2024 got off to a disappointing start for Royal Challengers Bangalore. In the first half, the team had lost 6 out of 7 matches, while they had to face defeat in the 8th match as well. There was a time when the team was relegated to the bottom 10th position in the points table. Now everyone claimed that this team will be out of the competition. However, proving these predictions wrong, RCB gained such momentum that the team won the next six matches in a row and secured the ticket for the playoffs.
Along with this, RCB has become the first team to win 6 matches in a row after losing 6 in a season. Till date, no team has been able to achieve such a spectacular performance. Earlier, Deccan Chargers Hyderabad in 2010, Punjab Kings in 2020 and Sunrisers Hyderabad in 2022 had won 5 consecutive matches in a season and lost the same number of matches.
RCB have completed the double hat-trick of victories for the second time in the IPL. Earlier in 2011, Bengaluru had set the record of winning 7 matches in a row. The team was runner-up that year.
RCB has a chance to break this record this year. If the team manages to win first the Eliminator and then the Qualifier-2 in the playoffs, they will have a record of winning 8 matches in a row. If they win the final, RCB will complete the triple hat-trick of victories.
