The Indian Premier League is the most competitive T20 tournament in the cricketing world. This lucrative tournament started as a platform to provide the best opportunities for the youngsters to showcase their talent. After an iconic inaugural T20 World Cup in 2007, the fans were eagerly waiting for a T20 league in India. And the BCCI ensured that the fans thoroughly enjoyed the inaugural IPL season.

Later on, after the advancement of technology, the smartphone and television made it possible for any fans to witness the thrill of the IPL. This added to the popularity of the teams and the hype for IPL increased exponentially. The fans waited for the summer every year to witness their favorite players play for the same team. 

Since the beginning of the IPL, there has been the presence of social media. It provides the perfect platform for the teams to interact with the fans and increase their fan base. Adding on, they can take some valuable inputs from the fans as well.

Here are the most popular IPL teams on social media right now:

8. Rajasthan Royals: 8.3 Million followers

 

The inaugural edition of the Indian Premier League will be the special one for any cricket fan. It was more like a pilot episode for any series. And, with a spectacular start to the season, the underdogs managed to clinch the title. It was Shane Warne, who led the team to their first title victory in 2008. 

However, things went haywire for the Rajasthan-based franchise since then. After a memorable first season, they have been unable to make an impact in the points table. Since 2009, they have tried many combinations to strengthen their lineup. But, poor form, absence of players have always hampered their performance. 

Talking about their social media presence, they have a solid fan following on Facebook as compared to other social media sites. On Facebook, the Royals have a fan following of 4.7M. Adding on, their Twitter and Instagram pages have a fan base of 1.7M and 1.9M respectively. With the IPL going on, this value is destined to increase.
