IPL 2024: Top Performers Throughout the Years, Season-Wise Performance, RCB Secure Win In 250th IPL Match

At the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Thursday, April 25, in an IPL 2024 league game, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by a decisive 35 runs in their 250th Indian Premier League (IPL) match.

RCB has not yet lifted the coveted IPL trophy in the 17 seasons of the top domestic T20 tournament. Given the team’s lackluster performance in the current IPL 2024 season, it seems as if their pursuit of the championship title will have to wait another year.

With just two points from eight games, the Bengaluru-based team is now at the bottom of the standings and their current season’s performance may not live up to their expectations. They have nonetheless triumphed in their historic 100th, 200th, and 250th IPL games.

Over the course of their storied 250 IPL games history, RCB has made it to three finals, but they have tragically lost each time. Even though they have qualified for the playoffs eight times in the previous sixteen seasons, they have never been able to win the illusive IPL championship.

2009 saw RCB make their first-ever participation in the IPL final; they returned for another appearance in the 2011 championship. They lost to Sunrisers Hyderabad in their most recent IPL final appearance, which took place in 2016.
