IPL Playoffs 2024: Till now no team in IPL has confirmed its place in the playoffs. It was believed that Rajasthan Royals, who are already second in the points table with 14 points, would become the first team to enter the playoffs by defeating Delhi Capitals, but Delhi Capitals did not allow this to happen. The interesting thing is that neither any team has qualified for the playoffs nor any team has been out of it. At present, the teams of Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans, who are running at the bottom in the points table, are also in the race.
Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals are at the forefront
A total of 56 matches have been played so far in the 17th season of the Indian Premier League. At present, only two teams seem to be closest to the playoffs and they may even qualify, but at the moment this has not happened. If we look at the current points table, we find that KKR team is currently on top with 16 points. Rajasthan Royals also have the same number of points. Although these teams can go to the playoffs even with this many points, but to put a queue in front of their name, at least one more win is required, which both these teams are searching for.
CSK, Sunrisers Hyderabad, LSG and DC are on par.
The special thing is that along with Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad, LSG, now Delhi Capitals also has 12 points. That is, in a way, there is a traffic jam here. After this, RCB, Punjab Kings, Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans have eight points. Although these four teams are also in the race for the playoffs, it seems a very difficult task for them to go to the playoffs from here.
RR and KKR’s place almost confirmed, two spots vacant
If we talk about the truth, then along with KKR, Rajasthan team will also go to the playoffs, there should not be much doubt about it. Because both of them still have three matches left and only one win is required. Even if these teams lose all the matches, the chances will still be alive. After this the fight will continue for two more spots. It should be believed that out of the four teams which are currently standing with 12 points, any two teams will secure their place in the top 4. That means the upcoming matches are going to be much more important.
