In the 16th season of IPL, 61 matches of the league round have been played. Now only nine matches are left. After that, the playoff matches will start. Even after 61 matches, no team's place has been confirmed in the playoffs. However, the team of Delhi Capitals is definitely out of this race. The fate of nine teams will be decided in the remaining nine matches.
Gujarat Titans
Gujarat Titans, captained by Hardik Pandya, has played 12 matches. He has 16 points with eight wins and a net run rate of 0.761. Gujarat has to play two matches. He has to play Sunrisers Hyderabad at home on Monday (May 15). At the same time, on May 21, he has to play against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at his home ground. If the Gujarat team gets even one win in the remaining matches, then it will reach the playoffs. Will also end the group round by being in the top two. At the same time, after losing both matches, she can be out of the top two. However, despite that she can reach the playoffs.
Chennai super kings
Chennai Super Kings, captained by Mahendra Singh Dhoni, now have to play only one match in the group round. He will face Delhi Capitals on May 20 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Chennai has 15 points from 13 matches. His net run rate is 0.381. If the Chennai team defeats Delhi, then it will easily reach the playoffs. Might as well stay in the top two. However, if the Chennai team loses to Delhi, then it can also be out of the playoff race. There is still a chance to get 16 points from five teams. In such a situation, Dhoni would not like to take any care against Delhi.
Mumbai Indians
The team of Mumbai Indians, who started slow in the tournament, has now become a contender for the title. He has won seven matches in 12 matches. His net run rate is 0.117. Mumbai's Lucknow Super Giants and Sunrisers Hyderabad have to play. If she wins both matches, she will easily reach the playoffs. If he loses a match, he will have a total of 16 points. Then Mumbai will have to depend on the results and net run rate of other teams. In the event of losing both matches, his hopes of moving forward will be greatly reduced. Two teams have already secured 15 or more points. Then Mumbai will have to fight with four teams for the fourth position. During this, the net run rate will become very important.
Lucknow Super Giants
Lucknow has played 12 matches so far. He has 13 marks. Lucknow is yet to play against Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders. If she wins both matches, she will easily reach the playoffs. Can go ahead even losing a match, but the net run rate will be important. If it loses in both matches, it will be out of the race for the playoffs.
Royal Challengers Bangalore
RCB's team has jumped into the points table by winning a big win against Rajasthan. She has reached the fifth position. His net run rate has gone from -0.345 to 0.166. Even if Virat Kohli's team defeats Sunrisers Hyderabad and Gujarat Titans in their remaining two matches, then their place in the playoffs will not be confirmed. He will have to depend on the results of other teams. After losing a match, his situation will get worse. This time it is looking difficult to reach the playoffs with 14 points.
Rajasthan Royals
Rajasthan has played 13 matches. It has only 12 digits. The net run rate of Rajasthan is 0.140. He has to play against Punjab Kings. If he wins against Punjab then he will have 14 points. In such a situation, it can reach the playoffs, provided the results of other teams are in its favor. If RCB, Lucknow Super Giants, and Punjab Kings lose both their matches and Sunrisers lose any match against Gujarat or Mumbai, then the Rajasthan team can move forward with 14 points in this situation. In such a situation, there will be a fight between Rajasthan and Kolkata for the fourth place. Then Sanju Samson's team will proceed based on a better net run rate.
Punjab Kings
Punjab has 12 points from 12 matches. He has to play against Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals. Punjab is among the six teams that can score 16 or more points. If she wins both the matches then she will have 16 points. His net run rate is very low. Punjab will have to win big in both matches, otherwise, they will have to depend on the results of other teams as well. In the event of losing a match, he will have 14 points and then he will have to keep an eye on the results of many teams.
Kolkata Knight Riders
Kolkata has 12 points from 13 matches and has a match to play against Lucknow Supergiants. If Kolkata wins that match then it will be 14 points. Despite this victory, he cannot reach the playoffs directly. After defeating the Super Giants, Kolkata will hope that not more than three teams cross the 14 mark. Kolkata will then have to depend on the results and net run rate of other teams.
Sunrise Hyderabad
Sunrisers Hyderabad, ranked ninth in the points table, have eight points from 11 matches. He has to play against Gujarat Titans, Royal Challengers Bangalore, and Mumbai Indians. If the Sunrisers win all three matches then they have 14 points. In such a situation, he will have to keep an eye on the results of other teams.
