IPL Records: Top 4 teams with most play-off games in IPL history

#3 Royal Challengers Bangalore (11 Times)

Royal Challengers Bangalore

RCB are one of the unluckiest teams in IPL. They are third in the list of teams who have played the most number of play-offs. But they never went on to win the IPL trophy. The Virat Kohli-led RCB came close to winning thrice in 2009 , 2011 and 2016, but lost in the final against Deccan Chargers, Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad respectively.

In 2016, Virat Kohli recorded over 900 runs, including four centuries. Winning the IPL trophy in that season would have been a perfect finish, but David Warner from SRH ensured that the IPL trophy stayed with Hyderabad. But in the next season, Bangalore produced their worst performance and finished last in the points table. Inconsistency has been the issue for Bangalore throughout the IPL. Barring this, RCB reached the play-offs and got knocked out in 2010 and 2015. Let's hope they can turn around their fortunes this season.
