Mahendra Singh Dhoni has been circulating the question of retirement from IPL for years
Gujarat in the playoffs?
This is Gujarat’s eighth win in 11 matches in IPL 2023 and has 16 points. With this win, the team has almost confirmed its place in the playoffs as well. Gujarat still has three matches to play. In this, if she loses all the three matches then only she will be in danger of being out. If the team wins even a single match, then the place in the playoffs will be completely confirmed. The team is yet to play against Mumbai, Hyderabad and RCB.
fight for only three places
Gujarat has almost confirmed its place in the playoffs, so now only three places remain. For this, Chennai Super Kings, Rajasthan Royals, Lucknow Super Giants, Mumbai Indians, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Delhi Capitals, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders are contenders. Mumbai, RCB, Punjab team can reach 18 points. Hyderabad, Rajasthan and Delhi can reach 16 points. At the same time, Chennai Super Kings have a chance to reach 19 points and Lucknow have 17 points.
The situation became more interesting due to the defeat of Rajasthan.
Had Rajasthan Royals won against Hyderabad, Markram’s team would have been almost out of the tournament. But Sandeep Sharma’s mistake on the last ball gave Hyderabad the win. Because of this this race has become more exciting. Hyderabad is at number 9 and Delhi at number 10, but if they win their remaining 4-4 matches, they can make it to the playoffs.
