IPL 2024 Playoffs Scenario and Updated Points Table: Delhi Capitals' win over Lucknow Super Giants means that they still in the race for playoffs.
IPL 2024 Playoffs Scenario and Updated Points Table: The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 playoffs race is intensifying by the day. Delhi Capitals' win over Lucknow Super Giants on Tuesday means that five teams are still fighting amongst themselves for two play-off spots in the IPL 2024. So far, Kolkata Knight Riders (19 in 13 matches) and second-placed Rajasthan Royals (16 points from 12 matches) are officially through. RR are yet not assured of a top-two finish. However, the most intense fight is among the five other teams for two spots. They are - Chennai Super Kings, SunRisers Hyderabad, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants.
Delhi Capitals' win over Lucknow Super Giants means a good news for CSK, RCB and SRH. Had LSG beaten DC, they would have been able to reach 16 points and thus complicating things for the three sides. But now they can reach a maximum of 14 points. Now LSG and DC have very faint chance of advancing because of their poor run-rates.
Chennai Super Kings - 14 points in 13 matches (NRR +0.528)
Matches remaining - 1 (vs RCB)
The Ruturaj Gaikwad-led Chennai Super Kings have a good chance. The have 14 points in 13 matches (NRR +0.528). If they beat RCB, they are through. A loss against RCB in the final league game won't knock the defending champions out either. They would then hope that RCB do not surpass them on NRR. If LSG win their last game (and reach 14), CSK will still be favourites to go through due to a much superior NRR. They would also hope SRH (14 from 12 games) lose both their matches, so that they have it easy.
