Here in this article, we have talked about how RCB Celebrates MI’s Victory against DC.
Well before the commencement of the game, the team captained by Rishabh Pant was standing on 14 points, one spot behind RCB on the standings for the IPL 2022. Assuming DC had conquered in the match, they would have moved up to the 4th slot with 16 points and it would have replaced RCB as the team that qualified for the playoffs. Interestingly, DC had a higher NRR than the team led by Faf du Plessis. RCB, too, had their celebrations after MI’s triumph.

In order to secure a spot in the playoffs, DC needed to secure a victory against the squad captained by Rohit Sharma. In the aftermath of MI’s triumph, Team RCB couldn’t hide their excitement at having secured a spot in the playoffs. In fact, the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will face off against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the first elimination match on May 25 at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
The hopes that the Delhi Capitals would make the playoffs in the IPL 2022 have been blown. Nevertheless, due to several fielding and judgmental faults, DC was unable to step over the line, and this allowed MI to finish the season on a strong note.
Happy vibes all night. 🤩😜#PlayBold #WeAreChallengers #IPL2022 #Mission2022 #RCB #ನಮ್ಮRCB #Playoffs pic.twitter.com/pD3aP1ZRpC
