Mumbai Indians (MI)

Captain: Hardik Pandya

Coach: Mark Boucher

Home Ground: Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai

IPL Titles: 5 (2013, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2020)

Owners: Indiawin Sports Private Limited (Reliance Industries Ltd)

Highlights & Challenges

Mumbai Indians (MI) have won five titles, and Rohit Sharma is hailed as one of the best T20 captains in the world. From 2017 to 2020, MI's stellar performances in four consecutive seasons made them the dominant force in the IPL. However, 2022 marked a low point for MI as they plummeted to tenth in the standings, with poor batting displays and failed auction strategies. The stark contrast between MI's historical success and their setback in 2022 illustrates the team's tumultuous journey.

Punjab Kings (PBKS)

Captain: Shikhar Dhawan

Coach: Trevor Bayliss

Home Ground: Punjab Cricket Association Stadium, Mohali

IPL Titles: 0

Owners: Mohit Burman, Ness Wadia, Preity Zinta, Karan Paul

Highlights & Challenges

In 2014, under George Bailey's leadership, the revamped team achieved remarkable success. Glenn Maxwell, who ultimately clinched the Player of the Tournament title, started with impressive innings, well-supported by David Miller. Punjab Kings topped the league table with 11 wins out of 14 matches. However, despite their strong performance, they narrowly lost the final despite scoring 199 runs. But in 2010, 2015, and 2016, they finished last. After a successful IPL season in 2014, the 2015 season was particularly disappointing. They only won three games while suffering defeat in 11 matches.

Rajasthan Royals (RR)

Captain: Sanju Samson

Coach: Kumar Sangakkara

Home Ground: Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur

IPL Titles: 1 (2008)

Owners: Manoj Badale, Lachlan Murdoch, RedBird Capital Partners

Highlights & Challenges

IPL history was etched with a memorable victory by Rajasthan Royals in 2008. Over the years, their steadfast commitment to fostering young, unknown talents has been commendable. However, controversies have plagued the team, notably the involvement of players in the spot-fixing scandal. As a result of the Lodha Committee's investigation into the scandal, the BCCI board banned the franchise for two years. Additionally, Raj Kundra, its owner, faces a lifetime ban. They failed to qualify for the playoffs for the third straight year, finishing second-last in the 2021 IPL season due to on-field struggles.

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)

Captain: Faf du Plessis

Coach: Sanjay Bangar

Home Ground: M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru

IPL Titles: 0

Owners: Diageo India Private Limited

Highlights & Challenges

In the IPL, RCB has endured highs and lows. They reached the finals in 2009, 2011, and 2016, showcasing their potential but ultimately falling short of the title. Their 2009 and 2011 campaigns were highlighted by outstanding performances from stars like Rahul Dravid, Anil Kumble, and Chris Gayle. In 2016, Virat Kohli turned what was shaping up to be a mid-table finish into a sensational run to the IPL final with a record-breaking performance. 

However, the team faced significant setbacks, starting with their initial strategy that leaned heavily on Test veterans, which didn't translate well into T20 success. This approach led to a major overhaul in management and coaching, including a notable ownership change from Vijay Mallya to Diageo India in 2015. The frequent changes in coaching staff until the stability brought by Mike Hesson's appointment reflect RCB's ongoing quest for the perfect formula to win their first IPL title.

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)

Captain: Aiden Markram

Coach: Brian Lara

Home Ground: Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad

IPL Titles: 1 (2016)

Owners: Sun TV Network

Highlights & Challenges

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) burst onto the IPL scene in 2013, taking over from Deccan Chargers with a resilience that quickly became their hallmark. Experimenting with leadership early on, they found their stride in 2015 under David Warner, culminating in a triumphant 2016 where they won their maiden IPL title. However, 2021 presented significant challenges, as SRH finished at the bottom of the table and saw major transitions including Warner's departure and coaching shifts, with Brian Lara stepping in to usher in a new era. Despite the lows, SRH's 2016 victory and their 2018 final run demonstrate their enduring spirit and potential for resurgence.
