As usual, there have been some tight finishes, as well as excellent individual performances. Bet here on IPL 2024 and other cricket matches! All eyes are on the big teams, especially the likes of defending champions Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians, as both sides chase a sixth IPL title. Other contender include 2022 winners Gujarat Titans, as well as Shreyas Iyer’s Kolkata Knight Riders and Lucknow Super Giants under KL Rahul. Here, TSN brings you the qualification chances for all the teams in the competition.   Who will qualify for IPL 2024 play-offs? Scenarios, wins required and chances for all teams detailed Rajasthan Royals Current points: 12 Estimated points required: 16 Estimated wins needed: 2 Games remaining: 7 Rajasthan Royals have looked like one of the best teams in the competition so far. In terms of tactics and execution, they have been far ahead of the other sides. They have had a couple of stumbles of late, but at present sit on top of the points table and should qualify with games to spare. Kolkata Knight Riders Current points: 8 Estimated points required: 16 Estimated wins needed: 4 Games remaining: 8 Gautam Gambhir’s return to Kolkata Knight Riders has coincided with a real uptick in form for the two-time champions. They have been menacing with bat in hand, and at present have the best net run rate in the league. This means they could potentially qualify with 14 or even 12 points if it came to it, but should make it through quite easily, like RR. Chennai Super Kings Current points: 8 Estimated points required: 16 Estimated wins needed: 4 Games remaining: 8 The jury is still out on Chennai Super Kings’ season at this point. After a 100% win record at home and 100% loss record away, they registered a clinical 20-run victory over Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium. They should be able to qualify, but it may come down to the last couple of games.

They caught the eye early on with an IPL-record score of 277 against MI, but have blown hot and cold. Pat Cummins’ side have been on the end of a couple of tight results both ways, and could still go either way from here. Lucknow Super Giants Current points: 6 Estimated points required: 16 Estimated wins needed: 5 Games remaining: 8 Two seasons, two playoff qualifications is an impressive record for LSG and they will be looking to make it three out of three. Like CSK, they tend to perform very well at their home ground but have been found wanting on the road. On Sunday, they suffered a heavy defeat to KKR, taking a massive NRR hit. Gujarat Titans Current points: 6 Estimated points required: 16 Estimated wins needed: 5 Games remaining: 8 The loss of Hardik Pandya ahead of this season was a big blow for two-time finalists Gujarat Titans, but they have shown their collective strength in patches so far. A couple of poor results means they are scrapping in mid-table, but a couple of rolls of the die in their favour could see them shoot up the rankings. They will need to improve their NRR, however. Mumbai Indians Current points: 4 Estimated points required: 16 Estimated wins needed: 6 Games remaining: 8 Mumbai Indians began their season with three losses in a row, before getting back on track with a couple of crushing home victories. They are beginning to gather steam, and could still be in with a shout of making the playoffs. However, their latest loss against Chennai Super Kings will have dented their chances. Their first target should be to reach 14 points, and hopefully improve their net run rate in order to sneak in. MORE: Did MI get an extra review against RCB? Punjab Kings Current points: 4 Estimated points required: 16 Estimated wins needed: 6 Games remaining: 8 Punjab Kings are unlikely to get to the ‘magical’ mark of 16 points required for playoffs qualification, but 14 is still on the table for them, provided they win big and improve on their net run rate which is currently negative. Delhi Capitals Current points: 4 Estimated points required: 16 Estimated wins needed: 6 Games remaining: 8 Delhi Capitals are in a similar predicament to Punjab, but have looked in much better shape in their last few games. They have beaten CSK and LSG so far this year, but their chances of making the top four remain slim. They are primed for the battle though, and fans can perhaps hope they sneak through with 14 points. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Current points: 2 Estimated points required: 16 Estimated wins needed: 7 Games remaining: 7 It is rare that a team can be almost written off at this stage of an IPL season, but RCB have had one of their poorest campaigns to date. With multiple heavy defeats both home and away, 2024 looks like it will end with a whimper for the team from the Garden City. Who will win IPL 2024?
