It was only the second time in five editions that the Royal Challengers Bangalore managed to qualify for the IPL playoffs at the last edition in the UAE.
In the 2016 edition, RCB finished second and the following year they ended up at the bottom. In 2019 IPL too, Virat Kohli’s men were the table laggards. They only sneaked into the Top Four via better Net Run Rate (-0.172) in the last IPL after three teams finished with 14 points each.
