Neymar and Cricket: A Surprising Love Story?
While cricket isn't as big in Brazil as football, Neymar's international fame and friendships with global athletes have introduced him to the IPL's madness. Over the years, we have seen footballers get drawn toward the IPL’s glitz and glamour, but Neymar’s indirect connection to the tournament is something that deserves a deep dive.
One might wonder: "Does Neymar even know what LBW stands for?" Well, we can't confirm that, but if there's anything Neymar loves, it's a sport filled with flair, skill, and drama. And IPL delivers that in abundance.

Which IPL Team Could Neymar Be Rooting For?
Given Neymar’s flamboyant style, love for entertainment, and never-say-die attitude, there are a few IPL teams that fit his personality like a glove.
1. Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) - The Showstoppers
RCB is the IPL team that thrives on flair and individual brilliance, much like Neymar on a football pitch. With superstars like Virat Kohli and Glenn Maxwell in the squad, Neymar might find himself vibing with the high-energy RCB culture. Also, let’s not forget that both Neymar and RCB have something in common: unmatched talent but an elusive major title.
2. Mumbai Indians (MI) - The Champions Mentality
If Neymar respects anything, it’s winning. With five IPL trophies under their belt, Mumbai Indians have the same kind of dominance in cricket that Neymar has in football. Plus, if there’s any IPL team that matches PSG’s financial muscle, it has to be MI, owned by the billion-dollar Reliance empire.
3. Chennai Super Kings (CSK) - The Legacy Factor
CSK, led by MS Dhoni, is known for its calm but lethal approach—something Neymar can relate to, especially when he plays alongside footballing greats like Messi. The sheer consistency of CSK in the IPL is what makes them a possible favorite for Neymar.

Neymar's IPL Love on Social Media
There have been instances where Neymar has interacted with cricketers on social media. He has commented on Virat Kohli’s posts, exchanged emojis with Kevin Pietersen, and even congratulated players on their IPL performances. While there’s no official confirmation on his favorite IPL team, it's clear that the football icon enjoys the tournament’s high-voltage entertainment.
Dark Humor Moment: Neymar and Cricket – A Match Made in Heaven?
Imagine Neymar taking a cricket bat and diving to the ground at the slightest touch, appealing for LBW. "Umpire, that's a red card!" You can almost hear him argue. Given his history of theatrical falls in football, we might see Neymar redefining the ‘soft dismissal’ rule in cricket.

Final Verdict: Neymar’s IPL Team?
If we had to place a bet, we'd say Neymar’s personality aligns most with RCB—stylish, aggressive, passionate, and still waiting for their biggest trophy. But whether it's MI, CSK, or even another team, one thing’s for sure: Neymar would enjoy the IPL just as much as football fans enjoy his mesmerizing skills on the field.
Until Neymar makes an official statement, let's keep debating, and who knows? Maybe next season, we’ll see him in an IPL jersey, cheering from the stands!
