zen Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 Below is the current points table - Can one (if not more) of the bottom 4 teams make to the playoffs? If so, which one (or two) of the top 4 teams will miss out? SRH's chances appear bleak. Indian Premier League TEAM M W L PT NRR CSK 8 6 2 12 1.223 DC 8 6 2 12 0.547 RCB 8 5 3 10 -0.706 MI 8 4 4 8 -0.071 KKR 8 3 5 6 0.110 RR 7 3 4 6 -0.190 PBKS 8 3 5 6 -0.368 SRH 7 1 6 2 -0.623
Lord Posted September 20, 2021 Posted September 20, 2021 KKR can make it. RR has outside chance with Livingstone back
zen Posted September 21, 2021 Author Posted September 21, 2021 KKR and RR have started well ... Worry for RR is its bowling attack without the likes of Archer. Morris would need to step up

Majestic Posted September 26, 2021 Posted September 26, 2021 The finals will be between CSK and DC. KKR have come with a real solid mindset in the second half of this season but think it will be tough for them to go past CSK and DC in the playoffs as they have to win consecutive matches on trott to do that. RCB will probably end up at 3 in points table ahead of KKR who will end up at 4. But feel the current version of KKR is good enough and even favourite to beat RCB in the knockouts. Punjab will remain inconsistent, play great cricket some day and extremely poor other days. Mumbai needs something special to turn things around. They were complacent when started this season and now struggling to make a comeback because of momentum. Feel the pressure of representing Indian team in the World T20 might also be getting the better of them in this tournament.
dilliboy Posted September 26, 2021 Posted September 26, 2021 DC and CSK look a cut above the rest.. Hope they play the final

zen Posted September 29, 2021 Author Posted September 29, 2021 RCB has a foot in the door for a playoff place … Need one more win in remaining 3 games to confirm that w/o NRR considerations

As mentioned before - “Worry for RR is its bowling attack without the likes of Archer. Morris would need to step up”. Also catching has been bad so far. The team needs heroic performances to win.

Waste of money drop Parag and Morris play Miller and some local bowler allow Livingston’s to bowl a bit

RR I like to follow for its 6 hitting capabilities/attitude and ability to cause upsets (w/o key players). I hope they continue that in the remaining games.
coffee_rules Posted September 29, 2021 Posted September 29, 2021 MI needs 2 wins out remaining 3 matches to qualify. They have a good chance with Hardik back in form
Chakdephatte Posted October 1, 2021 Posted October 1, 2021 They don't want to qualify. The win one match and lose other. KKR was looking good in first 2 matches, what happened suddenly.
urbestfriend Posted October 2, 2021 Posted October 2, 2021 As usual Ambani's team will be in final, so no chance for these teams.
zen Posted October 2, 2021 Author Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) Voting will close soon sometime today ... below are the scenarios: plays PK (10/03) at S'jah, SRH (10/06) at Abu Dhabi, and DC (10/08) at Dubai -> expected to win one of the 3 games to go through Teams below would focus on winning all of their remaining games: plays MI (10/05) and KKR (10/07) at S'jah plays RR (10/05) at S'jaj and SRH (10/08) at Dubai plays SRH (10/03) at Dubai and RR (10/07) at S'jah plays RCB (10/03) at S'jah and CSK (10/07) at Dubai NRR will come into play if Both RR and PK win their remaining games Both MI and KKR win their remaining games Both PK and MI/KKR win their remaining games PK, KKR, and MI win their remaining games If RR, PK, MI, and KKR win only 1 of their remaining two games In short, 4th spot is still open!
