How can RCB, SRH and CSK reach IPL 2024 Playoffs?
The IPL 2024 playoffs race is on with Sunrisers Hyderabad, Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Chennai Super Kings as the top contenders. Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants also have a chance but their Net Run Rate (NRR) may make it difficult. Kolkata Knight Riders are guaranteed a Top 2 spot, with SRH challenging Rajasthan Royals for a spot in Qualifier 1.
How can Chennai Super Kings qualify for the playoffs?
Chennai Super Kings can qualify by winning their final league game against RCB. Even if they lose, they can still qualify based on NRR. If LSG win their last game, CSK will still be favorites due to a superior NRR. They also hope SRH lose both their matches.
What are the scenarios for Sunrisers Hyderabad to reach the playoffs?
SRH can guarantee a playoff spot by winning their remaining two matches. Even if they lose one, they can still qualify. If they lose both, it will come down to NRR. They need to keep a better run-rate than other teams to grab the last playoff spot.
How can Royal Challengers Bengaluru qualify for the playoffs?
RCB must beat Chennai Super Kings to reach 14 points and hope their NRR is better than other teams vying for the fourth spot. They also need SRH to lose both games or LSG to lose their last match by a big margin.
