Only two sides have won the IPL in their debut seasons. They are Rajasthan Royals and Gujarat Titans. The two neighboring states came up against each other in IPL 2022 final on Sunday. While RR featured in their 2nd final after winning the inaugural trophy in 2008, GT were playing their first final in their debut season.
At the end of the contest, GT came on top. Before the tournament started no one gave them a chance. A bit similar to how it was with RR in the first season. RR had no big names. Shane Warne had not played much cricket before arriving at the IPL.
Here's How Social Media Reacted To Gujarat Titans Maiden Title
