IPL 2024 Playoff scenario: The IPL 2024 season is now reaching a point where each match is becoming more important. Till now there are 3 teams which are out of the race for the playoffs. At the same time, one team has confirmed its place in the top 2. Now there is a war going on between 6 teams for the three spots left. Meanwhile, today the teams of Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Supergiants are going to come face to face in a special match. This match will not only decide the future of these teams, but will also affect other teams. In such a situation, all eyes will be on it.
If Lucknow Super Giants team wins today
Lucknow Super Giants team has played 12 matches so far in this year’s IPL. That means he has two matches left. The team has won 6 out of these 12 matches, while it has faced defeat in 6. The team is currently at seventh place in the points table with 12 points. If LSG team wins today’s match, then its place in the playoffs will not be decided, but it will definitely take the team one step further. Also will keep your hopes alive. After this, LSG’s next match will be against Mumbai Indians, if the team beats Mumbai also then it will have a total of 16 points. Which can lead to going to the playoffs. But this alone will not suffice. After winning both their matches, LSG will also have to hope that Sunrisers Hyderabad loses both their remaining matches. SRH currently has 14 points. If the team wins even one match, it will also get 16 points and then the net run rate may come in the way of the decision.
If Delhi Capitals team wins
Now let us understand what will happen if Delhi Capitals team is successful in winning its match today. Delhi team has played 13 matches so far. Out of these, the team has won 6 and lost 7. The team has a total of 12 points and is currently at sixth position in the points table. First of all, understand that if the DC team loses today, it will not take long for it to become the fourth team to be eliminated from the playoff race. But what will happen if it wins? If the Delhi team wins today, it will remain in the race for the playoffs. But he will also have to depend on the results of the other team. Delhi team will reach 14 points by winning today’s match. At this moment two teams are already standing there.
CSK, Hyderabad and RCB will become a hindrance
Delhi will have to hope that CSK loses its remaining one match and Sunrisers Hyderabad loses its remaining two matches. With this, both these teams will stop at 14 points only. But the question is that RCB is also an obstacle in his path. CSK has already taken 14 points. RCB has 12 points. When there is a match between CSK and RCB, one team will win. If RCB wins, it will have 14 points and if CSK wins, it will also have 16 points. In such a situation, Delhi team may appear trapped.
The path of LSG and DC is very difficult.
Overall, if we talk honestly, whichever team wins today, it is almost impossible for it to go to the playoffs, because its own victory will not help. Other teams don’t necessarily play the way you want. In such a situation, whatever be the result of today’s match, there is only satisfaction. Yes, if a miracle happens then it is a different matter. It remains to be seen how both the teams perform at the Arun Jaitley Stadium today and what new scenarios are created after that.
