Who Can Take the Last Playoff Spot?

There’s one playoff spot left. Mumbai Indians (14 points), Delhi Capitals (13 points), and Lucknow Super Giants (10 points) are still in the race.

Key upcoming match:

  • Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capitals – Wednesday, May 21
If Mumbai Indians win, they will be favourites to take the 4th spot.
If Delhi Capitals lose, they will be knocked out of the tournament.

What LSG need to qualify:

  • LSG must win all 3 remaining matches (against SRH, GT, RCB) to reach 16 points.
  • PBKS must beat both DC and MI, so PBKS finish on 14 points.
  • DC must beat MI, so DC end with 15 points.
  • LSG must finish ahead on points because their Net Run Rate (-0.469) is much lower than MI's (+1.156).
