Over the course of the campaign, a number of players stepped up and grabbed the opportunitities given to them with both hands. Before the IPL 2023 playoffs start, we take a look at the Best XI of the league campaign.
1. Faf du Plessis:The top-scoring batter at the end of the league campaign, Faf du Plesiss truly had his finest IPL season yet. Though his performances couldn't take RCB through to the playoffs, the South African should take pride in what he was able to do with the bat. Had a few middle-order batters in the team stepped up, the Bengaluru franchise would've been in the playoffs at this stage.
