RCB was followed by CSK and MI at no.2 and 3 respectively.
The Faf du Plessis-led side did manage to qualify for the playoffs but eventually, they crashed out of IPL after enduring a seven-wicket defeat against Rajasthan Royals in the Qualifier 2. Like every year for the last few editions of the IPL, the fans and supporters of RCB were heartbroken, as they expected some changes under a new captain and coach.
RCB was still the most tweeted team on IPL 2022, as Twitter India released a statement which stated: “While Gujarat Titans, won the tournament trophy, Royal Challengers Bangalore won on Twitter – becoming the most Tweeted about team of the season. The team’s former skipper, Virat Kohli, also remained the talk of the timelines on the service — becoming the most Tweeted about player of the season.”
