Despite being kicked out of the league for two consecutive seasons, the team is second only to Mumbai Indians, who have won five IPL titles. While all of CSK’s titles were won under his reign, MS Dhoni have been the architect of their success. Sreesanth believes the team won’t be able to win the trophy this year, although he will once again lead the team in IPL 2023.
“I don’t think so (that CSK will win IPL 2023). There is only one Mallu captain – Sanju Samson – I am supporting them (Rajasthan Royals). But it would be fun if a new team wins. I would feel great if RCB win IPL 2023. Virat (Kohli) has done so much for Indian cricket…it would be great if RCB win,”Sreesanth disclosed to Sports Yaari.
So far, RCB have played three IPL finals without any success. They first competed in the lucrative League Championship in 2009, where they were beaten by the now defunctioned Deccan Lightning. In 2011, the team took part in the second final, won by CSK. In 2016, Sunrisers Hyderabad beat them in the team’s most recent IPL final.
After Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings, Kolkata Knight Riders holds the third-highest number of IPL championships with two.
