How CSK And RCB Can Both Qualify For IPL 2024 Playoffs?

For both CSK and RCB to qualify, Sunrisers Hyderabad must lose their remaining matches. This keeps them at 14 points, giving CSK and RCB a better shot at the playoffs.

CSK's net run rate must remain higher than RCB’s even if they lose to RCB. This means RCB needs to win without drastically impacting CSK’s net run rate.

RCB must secure a victory against CSK in their upcoming match. A win will push them to 14 points, keeping their playoff hopes alive.

SRH needs to lose their last two matches by significant margins. This scenario helps in lowering SRH's net run rate, favoring both CSK and RCB.

Lucknow Super Giants must lose their final match against Mumbai Indians. This prevents LSG from surpassing CSK and RCB on the points table.

Delhi Capitals need to stay out of the playoff race. Their negative net run rate almost eliminates them, provided SRH loses their matches.

Gujarat Titans should win one and lose one of their remaining matches. This outcome prevents GT from challenging the top four positions.

Rajasthan Royals, already qualified, must maintain their position. Any additional wins from them ensure fewer points available for other contenders.

Mumbai Indians, though out of the playoff race, must defeat LSG. This outcome aids in limiting the number of teams tied at 14 points.

The final few matches of the season are critical. The outcomes of these games will determine the playoff structure, with specific results needed for CSK and RCB’s qualification.
