1.
Rajasthan Royals - Undoubtedly the
best team. 3 defeats - one right at the start, when they were yet to find their feet, one right at the end in a game they took lightly and one in the middle which they are entitled to.
2.
King's X1 Punjab -
Very strong team. 4 defeats - one against the top team, 2 against the No. 3 team (against whom they seem to have a mental block).
3.
Chennai Super Kings - The
most unpredictable team. 6 defeats - 2 against Rajasthan, but 0 against Punjab and then they have lost to almost every other team once (except Kolkata)
4.
Delhi Daredevils - Typical
middle of the table team. Did a good job of minnow-bashing, decent against top and other middle of the table teams.
5.
Mumbai Indians - Another
unpredictable team. 2 losses to Punjab against 2 wins versus Kolkata but against every other team has a 1-1 record, minnows and toppers and middlers alike.
6.
Kolkata Knight Riders - Excellent
minnow-bashers, pulled off the odd upset against a top team too.
7. Bangalore Royal Challengers -
Minnows that caused an upset and a half
8. Deccan Chargers -
Minnows that caused an upset and a half.
