Mumbai, May 23: The IPL 2022 league phased ended on Sunday (May 22) as four teams qualified for the IPL playoffs, and they are Gujarat Titans, Rajasthan Royals, Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bangalore.
They were the top 4 teams in the league phase but that does not mean other teams who failed to qualify for the playoffs failed to produce moments of their own.
In the league phase of the IPL 2022, other 6 teams too had thrilled us over the last month and half or so with several notable performances.
Punjab Kings, a team that played some exciting cricket throughout the IPL 2022 without exactly reaping the rewards, summed that situation perfectly after his side’s match against the Sunrisers Hyderabad.
“The way Livingstone batted, the brand of cricket we played, Shikhar's been consistent over the years, Arsh put his hand up. With the brand of cricket we played, there are going to be times it won't come off and we won't look good.
“We couldn't stitch back-to-back wins. As a batting unit, we lost wickets in a cluster. We have been a very positive unit. Lot of it we will discuss now after the IPL. We were here and we meant business and looked to execute things to the best of our ability,” said Agarwal.
It’s applicable to a few other teams as well. So, let’s take a quick look back at some of the stats from the IPL 2022 league phase like most wickets, most runs, most catches, highest partnership etc.
