Gujarat Titans won the maiden IPL title in their debut season in IPL 2022. They got the better of Rajasthan Royals in the final to win the honour. Gujarat Titans won the title under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya.
In the last season, Gujarat Titans, Rajasthan Royals, Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bangalore made it to the playoffs of the competition. It remains to be seen which teams will qualify for the playoffs this time.

Meanwhile, Australia’s talismanic cricketer picked four teams that will make it to the playoffs of the IPL 2023 season. According to him, Chennai Super Kings, Gujarat Titans, Lucknow Super Giants and Sunrisers Hyderabad will qualify for the playoffs.
