Each IPL season transforms zodiac enthusiasts into instant cricket pundits, leading to hilarious predictions and unwavering team loyalties. From Aries' early Punjab Kings endorsement to Taurus's steadfast CSK support, the tournament became a stage for both hope and heartbreak.

Zodiac Signs and Their IPL Predictions: What They Thought vs What the Cricket Gods Laughed At

Every IPL season, the zodiac squad turns into self-proclaimed cricket experts. But the universe had its popcorn ready, watching the chaos unfold like a Christopher Nolan plot in Rohit Shetty colors.

Aries (Team Manifestation)

Called it early: “This is the year for Punjab Kings!” Then Punjab lost the plot faster than a Netflix rom-com. Aries tried to stay optimistic. The stars, however, had other plans.

Taurus (Team Loyalty Over Logic)

Backed CSK like it was a family business. When Dhoni blinked, Taurus felt emotions they hadn’t processed since Demonetisation. Still refused to admit defeat—because loyalty beats reality.

Gemini (Flip-Flop Central)

Switched teams mid-tournament. First MI, then LSG, then whoever won the toss. Claimed it was “strategic analysis.” In truth, Gemini just wanted to be right once. Once.

Cancer (The Nostalgic Oracle)

Whispered about Raina and Gambhir like they were ancient war heroes. Predicted an emotional comeback arc. Got a group-stage exit instead. Rain, tears, same thing.

Leo (RCB Incarnate)

Believed every year was

the

year. Wore red, roared loud, made reels. Then came the group-stage heartbreak—again. Yet, Leo rose like Shah Rukh in a climax, saying, “Picture abhi baaki hai.” Spoiler: it wasn’t.

Virgo (Spreadsheet in Human Form)

Calculated win ratios, pitch stats, and moon signs. Predicted GT would win. GT didn’t. Virgo blamed “retrograde.” Astrology said: don’t fight fate with Excel.

Libra (Team Aesthetic)

Chose teams based on jersey colors. SRH had orange, so it was giving main character energy. When they got bowled out for 120, Libra updated their Insta story with “vibes still immaculate.”

Scorpio (Silent Strategist)

Kept it low-key. Backed RR and even bet snacks on it. Got burned. Refused to admit defeat. Scorpio plotted revenge on the IPL algorithm.

Sagittarius (Optimistic Tourist)

Didn’t care who won—just wanted sixes and chaos. Backed KKR because it felt “cinematic.” When KKR lost, Sagittarius blamed the script and praised the soundtrack.

Capricorn (CEO of Disappointment)

Backed LSG with the seriousness of an investor. Watched them crash and burn like a startup with too much seed funding. Said “next year” with deadpan hope.

Aquarius (The Disruptor)

Supported whichever team no one else was supporting. Believed SRH would shock the world. SRH shocked no one. Aquarius called it a “learning season.”

Pisces (Emotional Investor)

Felt everything. Predicted MI would rise like a phoenix. MI fell like a soap opera character on slippery stairs. Pisces cried anyway.
