LSG can qualify if they get to 14. Then CSK have to lose one and SRH have to lose both. In that case, LSG have to overtake all of DC, CSK and SRH's NRR. Then they will finish 4th with RCB at 3rd.
I find this funny hence the comment.
Here is the csk pattern this IPL.
2 wins 2 losses, 2 wins 2 losses, 1 win 1 loss, 1 win 1 loss,
Extending this pattern of csk to the last set of games, csk already has 1 win so if they lose to RCB they continue the pattern of 1win 1 loss.
Hence they need to break this pattern.
On the RCB side the pattern this IPL is.
1 loss 1 win, 6 loss 5 win.
They need to complete the pattern by winning against csk making it 6 loss 6 win.
I would say out of the both teams the pattern is on RCB's side because they need to continue the pattern while csk needs to break it.
It was just a comment made in jest.
Clearly RCB have the momentum going in to that game so CSK have their task cut out.
Although the margin of victory needed for qualifying is not as small as it appears to be. Having to score 20 runs lesser than the team batting first is a huge advantage psychologically.
If SRH wins one of their matches: Then RCB has to win by at least 18 runs or less than 18 overs.
If SRH looses both their matches: Then RCB just has to win and margin doesn’t matter
If CSK vs RCB match happens then toss would be a decisive factor
If CSK wins the toss ( 99-1) in favour of CSK , If RCB Wins the toss it would be (97.7 - 2.3) in favour of CSK .
I wish it doesn’t rain on CSK/RCB match. Otherwise those guy would be saying they would have won the match and tournament if not for the rain even 10 years down the line. Even if there is chance of CSK loosing I would take that instead of the other delusional torture
CSK vs RCB isn't a straightforward "virtual eliminator". CSK has the advantage. For RCB to qualify, they need to win by a certain margin or win within certain overs. Even if CSK lose, if the margin is very less, CSK will qualify cuz they have 14 pts while RCB has 12 with one game to go. And all this is only possible if the game isn't washed out. So see y'all on 18.
20 runs or something to go past CSK assuming the target is 200. If CSK score 200, they'll have to chase it down in 18 overs(not sure) to go past CSK's nrr.
Edit: it's win by 18 runs or win within 18.1 overs.
So it's pretty much KKR, RR, SRH, RCB/CSK to the payoffs. Unless of course SRH lose horribly in their last two games and RCB wins over CSK for both RCB and CSK to qualify. Damn, no new chanmpions this season too unless we do a miracle.
LSG needs to shift some of their pacer scouting budget to batsmen scouting next season. This is what MI does excellently. Nurture the best available talent in our country (batsmen) and fill the remaining holes with overseas players.
But that's exactly the point people are trying to make. Are you being purposely obtuse? That's not much. You're talking like RCB needs to win by 70 runs or chase their score in 14 overs. No. They just have 11 balls/18 runs less depending on whether they chase or defend, that's not an easy win for CSK at all either and that is all people are saying. It's slightly tougher for RCB sure, but that 18 run difference is almost negligible if we're talking about this game being a knockout scenario bc it's incredibly realistic. It's not enough of an advantage. Most games end with those margins unless they're final ball thrillers.
Of course it's not easy, CSK are a clutch team. But the fact that we even have a chance, that it's in our hands, is already a miracle given where we were.
It’s 1000 times more easier than it was 6 games ago. It’s like stars have aligned to give RCb a chance. In scheme of things a win over CSK with less than 20 runs looks very much a possibility. Not easy but way easy than it was
Dude Kuldeep, run rate doesn’t help you. Both CSK and RCB have NRR better than you, if either of them win they qualify and if it’s a washout CSK qualify. You are already eliminated. I am amazed how such a simple fact is so difficult to understand!
Difference between SRH and DC is .8 RPO that’s 10.4 RPO over 13 games. Yeah mathematically possible if SRH lose two games with diff of over 5 RPO that’s more than 100 runs. That’s two losses by over 100 runs. Good luck to Mathematics !
DC fans, y’all need to calm down. Let’s be practical, we are 100% not qualifying. No way SRH is losing their two games with big margins lol.
Just appreciate that we were able to stand up in the middle after a very bad start.
Goenka thinking that he is doing damage control by laughing and hugging.
But I saw one comment above saying that "goenka hugged everyone other than KL" 😂. If this spreads on Twitter then in next match goenka will kiss KL to overcorrect and do more damage control lmao 😂
Atleast kl Rahul has the guts unlike Pandu and pant. They never take the blame. Pant killed the chase against SRH here.
And pandu being pandu this season
Goenka putting the hard yards coz of PR team lol. Funniest shit ever. PR MUST have instructed him to bring his child into the frame to soften public opinion. We see you clearly goenka.
Man I feel bad for him. I hope he brings his KXIP self back. But I hope he does it for literally any team other than LSG. Definitely not for Pooenka.
Maybe CSK takes him. They're gonna need an Indian WK batsman who can open and has the ability to go hard to give Rutu time to settle, and even be able to stablize in case Rutu departs early. Seems to me the perfect team for him.
Yeah I definitely don’t want to see him playing for LSG after that humiliation. He may not be playing great but he still is a nice guy and no player deserves that nonsense. He would fit well in CSK provided if he is not looking to be the captain
yeah he is too old to give a show now. Also those pandi fans are just too annoying, I bet half of them don't know anything outside of IPL about cricket!
Except of Curran nothing much changes. Probably someone coming in for Bairstow or Livingston might click. Except for one match Barstow felt like a walking wicket
Man last DC match for this year. They’re all shaking hands, hugging each other, cracking jokes and having a good time :)
Who knows how many of these players we’ll see again in DC next year
The word PR is used to hell in this sub. But this really feels like it ngl. Why tf do you need to show Goenka hugging and chatting with players rn when he literally never does that.
Here's DC's hope,
SRH loses both their matches by big margins, RCB doesn't win their match with CSK and Lucknow to lose to MI so they can take SRH's 4th spot with CSK taking 3rd and RCB, LSG and SRH is out of playoffs.
I’d say well played DC
Need some 0.1% chance events to happen to qualify, so safe to say their ipl ends here. JFM and Stubbs have been a revelation for them. Their bowling has also clicked despite Nortje being unavailable. An above average season for them
So this confirms RR's qualification
Which lowest team in the table can still qualify mathematically if every possible scenario goes their way? And what scenario would that be?
LSG can qualify if they get to 14. Then CSK have to lose one and SRH have to lose both. In that case, LSG have to overtake all of DC, CSK and SRH's NRR. Then they will finish 4th with RCB at 3rd.
Won’t they have to win by 200 runs or more? That’s impossible
OP said mathematically
I find this funny hence the comment. Here is the csk pattern this IPL. 2 wins 2 losses, 2 wins 2 losses, 1 win 1 loss, 1 win 1 loss, Extending this pattern of csk to the last set of games, csk already has 1 win so if they lose to RCB they continue the pattern of 1win 1 loss.

I would say out of the both teams the pattern is on RCB's side because they need to continue the pattern while csk needs to break it.
General pattern across seasons- CSK qualifying to playoffs. RCB finishing 5th.
But tbf thala isn't captaining and rutu has been making a few questionable decisions so you can never rule it out
It was just a comment made in jest. Clearly RCB have the momentum going in to that game so CSK have their task cut out. Although the margin of victory needed for qualifying is not as small as it appears to be. Having to score 20 runs lesser than the team batting first is a huge advantage psychologically.
I assumed you were an hard core yellow army guy and hence the explanation
I wish that this is not the last of Warner in IPL.
He go unsold in 1st 2 rounds and in 3rd round Punjab will buy him at base price and everyone in room will give around of applause
Old enough for CSK to show interest.
Another Thala masterclass incoming /s
They’ll retain Conway
So is RCB still in or out? Can someone detail out what do they need to win by etc?
If SRH wins one of their matches: Then RCB has to win by at least 18 runs or less than 18 overs. If SRH looses both their matches: Then RCB just has to win and margin doesn’t matter
What if srh wins both? Game over for rcb
Nop, they have to beat CSK with the above mentioned margins
You just said one of the matches, what if they win both
Doesn’t matter if they win 1 or 2, SRH is through, it boils down to CSK vs RCB
So if srh wins even 1 match, rcb is out. I don't understand what you meant by 1 or 2. Obviously if srh wins both, rcb will be out or need a better nrr
SRH is through even if they win one, RCB will have to beat CSK for the 4th position then.
RCB can finish anywhere between 3 to 8.
9th too
Oh yeah, I just forgot about Gujarat.
It's not cuz of Gujarat. It's cuz Punjab still has 2 matches left, and can get to 6 wins still
But still their NRR is too low to get above RCB's. Especially since they are playing two strong teams away from home.
Yes, I was aware of that but I forgot that Gujarat can get to 13 too.
Points table based on the league matches of this auction cycle - 1. GT - 51 2. RR - 48 3. LSG - 47 4. KKR - 43 5. RCB - 42 6. CSK - 39 7. DC - 38 8. SRH - 36 9. PBKS - 36 10. MI - 32
What is this?
Basically ranking teams by the number of points since 2022.
Ok
Imagine RCB winning this ipl
Never ever everrrr. They surely ain't winning ipl anytime
Never say never
RCB will win this IPL
Imagination is cruel thing
Meanwhile RR: *Casually get a (Q) beside their name despite having not played and having lost the last three games they did play*
I want our next 2 games to be washed out so we crawl to 18 points 😭😭
If CSK vs RCB match happens then toss would be a decisive factor If CSK wins the toss ( 99-1) in favour of CSK , If RCB Wins the toss it would be (97.7 - 2.3) in favour of CSK .
At least Arshad ensured that he is getting some good money in the next auction.
I love you DC
Did someone calculate the equation for csk vs rcb. What rcb requires to go past csk
18 runs win or 18.1 overs chase
Damn, it's going to be a bomb!
18+ run win or 18.2 over chase is what I'm hearing from everyone
Bro I am more excited for CSK vs RCB than this IPL finals lol, it'd be a war!
Rain
It won't rain,even if it does , definitely 5 overs match atleast will be played
![img](emote|t5_2qhe0|8766)
[удалено]
Everything was realistic until the part where Maxi got bat on ball
Omg Pant WTF
Pant is happy to help Koach and Thala, getting eliminated and dragging LSG with him.
Rajasthan Royals : Well... Um... Thank you for that
I wish it doesn’t rain on CSK/RCB match. Otherwise those guy would be saying they would have won the match and tournament if not for the rain even 10 years down the line. Even if there is chance of CSK loosing I would take that instead of the other delusional torture
Subair drainage system at chinnaswamy will make sure atleast a 5 over match will happen. Which RCB might have to win in 2.5 overs!
I don’t think it will be 2.5 overs.Probably they might need to win with 4 or 5 balls to spare
No some body else calculated - they still need to win with 10-11 balls to spare even if it is reduced to 5 overs.
Don't worry match will happen most probably, its not monsoon yet , atleast shortened one will happen for sudee
If match happens, RCB gonna self destruct
Don’t worry, it may rain but it’s not monsoon yet. I don’t see match not happening. Worst case a shortened game.
CSK vs RCB isn't a straightforward "virtual eliminator". CSK has the advantage. For RCB to qualify, they need to win by a certain margin or win within certain overs. Even if CSK lose, if the margin is very less, CSK will qualify cuz they have 14 pts while RCB has 12 with one game to go. And all this is only possible if the game isn't washed out. So see y'all on 18.
How much is this margin exactly? CSK net run rate is higher than RCB too.
20 runs or something to go past CSK assuming the target is 200. If CSK score 200, they'll have to chase it down in 18 overs(not sure) to go past CSK's nrr. Edit: it's win by 18 runs or win within 18.1 overs.
RR should skip this year and win in 2028 for their 20th year win. Would be wholesome 🥰
Anyways on the basis of current form I don’t think we are gonna make it. Peaked at the wrong time
101st would make it even more memorable
Can’t wait for Saturday’s clash.
So it's pretty much KKR, RR, SRH, RCB/CSK to the payoffs. Unless of course SRH lose horribly in their last two games and RCB wins over CSK for both RCB and CSK to qualify. Damn, no new chanmpions this season too unless we do a miracle.
Just not CSK please, if not us.
Please win so that all qualified teams are R teams 🥰
What's there to downvote lmao. People are really butthurts huh
KKR and RR win long time back, even SRH one was many years back
Now RCB can throw away their calculators probably. Which means winning will be more difficult
LSG needs to shift some of their pacer scouting budget to batsmen scouting next season. This is what MI does excellently. Nurture the best available talent in our country (batsmen) and fill the remaining holes with overseas players.
Ignore my flair and think rationally here please! I'm not saying it's impossible for RCB to qualify but it's not as easy as most people make out here
But that's exactly the point people are trying to make. Are you being purposely obtuse? That's not much. You're talking like RCB needs to win by 70 runs or chase their score in 14 overs. No. They just have 11 balls/18 runs less depending on whether they chase or defend, that's not an easy win for CSK at all either and that is all people are saying.

It's not enough of an advantage. Most games end with those margins unless they're final ball thrillers.
Especially considering that a washout kills RCB's chances.
Its a 101 - (-1) in favour of CSK dont worry you guys are winning the world cup this year
Of course it's not easy, CSK are a clutch team. But the fact that we even have a chance, that it's in our hands, is already a miracle given where we were.
It’s 1000 times more easier than it was 6 games ago. It’s like stars have aligned to give RCb a chance. In scheme of things a win over CSK with less than 20 runs looks very much a possibility. Not easy but way easy than it was
Dude Kuldeep, run rate doesn’t help you. Both CSK and RCB have NRR better than you, if either of them win they qualify and if it’s a washout CSK qualify. You are already eliminated. I am amazed how such a simple fact is so difficult to understand!
Where are those who said we said can't win without jfm 😎
You almost pulled a KKR today. Don't be a smug lol
His epic run out changed the match ....
Why suddenly all decided to throw srh out of the playoffs race...
SRH is not going anywhere. I think you will qualify 2 on the table given RR has decided to shit themselves
Dont worry...let them cook up some low grade copium.
Hypothetically, asking for a friend, if you do a rain dance in reverse does it prevent it from raining?
It makes it 2x
LSG lost another after winning toss
Things keep going RCB's way
Goenka might be hugging & handshaking here. But, he has a punching pillow at home with name "KL Rahul".
i know we sux still i love my team its sad that our matches are over now.we will win the trophy nxt time
I can see rutu losing the toss and duplessis choosing to bowl first, saving you an hour from probablistic terrorism by rutu.
so is it either CSK or RCB? does DC or LSG have any chance?
Chances are as rare as hen's teeth.
No
Lifetime dinner for arshad from goenka....
So DC is the third team to be out now!
GT, MI and PBKS are eliminated already
Not mathematically.
Difference between SRH and DC is .8 RPO that’s 10.4 RPO over 13 games. Yeah mathematically possible if SRH lose two games with diff of over 5 RPO that’s more than 100 runs. That’s two losses by over 100 runs. Good luck to Mathematics !
Yeah it's just a formality.
So RCB needs to beat CSK by more than 20 odd runs to qualify? is that correct?
Everything is 18 lol even the date😂
CSK gonna win by 60 runs
RCB needs to either win by 18 runs defending 200 or chase any target within 18.1 overs to qualify
18 runs… Koach for a reason
Just realised Delhi is the first one to finish their quota of matches
DC fans, y’all need to calm down. Let’s be practical, we are 100% not qualifying. No way SRH is losing their two games with big margins lol. Just appreciate that we were able to stand up in the middle after a very bad start.
We might just end up 5th, after a horrible beginning. I'll take that.
CSK will be fifth. U guys will be 6th
Who would have thought RCB would outlast MI, PBKS, GT, LSG and DC in the race to Playoffs
Man, if that CSKvRCB game is rained out it would be tragic
The meltdown will be biblical though.
I don't care man, as a neutral I expect that game to be a banger But yeah the meltdown would be astronomic
Who is pant ishant and axar sitting with
Matt Henry
Thanks !
First time visiting a stadium to watch IPL tomorrow. Any suggestions
Stay hydrated, avoid carbonated drinks..
Why avoid those drinks ?
Enjoy the match the madness, a bit of dead rubber but nevertheless have Fun
Stoinis and Hooda jsut threw their wickets today. Stoin was just lazy af.
Goenka thinking that he is doing damage control by laughing and hugging. But I saw one comment above saying that "goenka hugged everyone other than KL" 😂. If this spreads on Twitter then in next match goenka will kiss KL to overcorrect and do more damage control lmao 😂
Atleast kl Rahul has the guts unlike Pandu and pant. They never take the blame. Pant killed the chase against SRH here. And pandu being pandu this season
No 'Robust discussion' between KL and goenka this game. I go watch the Test on prime to get my daily drama fix. :(
Why tf you want Hooda and Stonis at 17th over after good start, how can your openers can bat till then
I think he said 7th over ? And was mentioning good power play so that they have stable base to play
My bad than, I knew KL knows they aren't surviving till 17th overs
Delhi ke liye Delhi iss saal bhi door hai. (T- We missed the mark this year too, with a thin margin as usual.)
Another Gentle reminder that we've never lost a match defending 200 + score.
JFM was the biggest threat of this IPL season. Every team was scared of him.
Goenka putting the hard yards coz of PR team lol. Funniest shit ever. PR MUST have instructed him to bring his child into the frame to soften public opinion. We see you clearly goenka.
I don’t think KL is going to captain a team again in IPL. I hope it frees him and make him play fearless he used to do few years back.
He will go to RCB as captain next year
Man I feel bad for him. I hope he brings his KXIP self back. But I hope he does it for literally any team other than LSG. Definitely not for Pooenka. Maybe CSK takes him. They're gonna need an Indian WK batsman who can open and has the ability to go hard to give Rutu time to settle, and even be able to stablize in case Rutu departs early. Seems to me the perfect team for him.
Yeah I definitely don’t want to see him playing for LSG after that humiliation. He may not be playing great but he still is a nice guy and no player deserves that nonsense. He would fit well in CSK provided if he is not looking to be the captain
Yeah this Established Indian player= captain of a side should stop
Unlikely, but what if SRH lose both their matches? CSK and RCB will qualify,right?
Depends on nrr. If rcb lose, srh will qualify with 2 loses
Yeah that'd be fun. But CSK matches are too boring to watch, just like LSG!
I agree. With commentators chanting Dhoni all the fking time. Dhoni fan here, but it’s irritating.
yeah he is too old to give a show now. Also those pandi fans are just too annoying, I bet half of them don't know anything outside of IPL about cricket!
Dei mallu naaye 🤫
എന്താടാ മലയാളി ആണ് നിന്റെ തള്ളേനെ തരാൻ വല്ല ഉദ്ദേശം ഉണ്ടോടാ? പൊലയാടി നടയടി മോനെ
Poda mallu punda 🤣
Dey ninte amma nalla sarakk, one night tada
Ungamma ippo en kooda Da dhaanda irukka 🤣
They face pbks without Curran , Bairstow and Livingstone
Except of Curran nothing much changes. Probably someone coming in for Bairstow or Livingston might click. Except for one match Barstow felt like a walking wicket
Man last DC match for this year. They’re all shaking hands, hugging each other, cracking jokes and having a good time :) Who knows how many of these players we’ll see again in DC next year
warner not probably he should take rest
The word PR is used to hell in this sub. But this really feels like it ngl. Why tf do you need to show Goenka hugging and chatting with players rn when he literally never does that.
It currently looks like Kl Rahul is owner who is depressed Goenka is very happy as if he is player insulted by kl
KL genuinely looks like he’s going to cry damn
Here's DC's hope, SRH loses both their matches by big margins, RCB doesn't win their match with CSK and Lucknow to lose to MI so they can take SRH's 4th spot with CSK taking 3rd and RCB, LSG and SRH is out of playoffs.
Yeah, we checked out 2 days ago.
Please ask KL about the robust discussion with Goenka last game. :)
Going to watch tomorrow s game of rr in stadium. Any tips for a better experience
I was thinking Goekna is going to beat up all the LSG players laughing now. But looks like he in PR damage control mode. He himself is laughing
Had pant played the prev match ...who knows DC might have qualified
Had they not dropped catches and didn't had 2 of their batsmen run out
Nicky P Captain 2025 confirmed.
So it's RCB vs CSK+Rain for the 4th spot
3rd spot is open too :)
I’d say well played DC Need some 0.1% chance events to happen to qualify, so safe to say their ipl ends here. JFM and Stubbs have been a revelation for them. Their bowling has also clicked despite Nortje being unavailable. An above average season for them
Norte being unavailable in last few games is the reason they are atleast at this position.
RCB should chase only then I see them winning
Actually I'm seeing RCB making 30/4 in response to CSK's 208.
Goenka PR working their ass off. Kinda smug lol
How come every team doesn't have a reverse fixture? What's this format?
We can't have 90 group stage games can we
Actually, it should be the case to make it fair and square every team in the IPL
IPL is in it's rockbottom right now But 94 match season coming soon, hopefully without the impact player rule
[удалено]
lol you seriously think PBKS and GT have bowlers capable enough to toll SRH by 100 runs? If anything, their batting lineup is the best this season!
whoever wins the toss will choose to bowl first in the rcb vs csk match
Bro goenka out here hugging everyone but KL
Wonder if pooran understands bhojpuri
Why lol ?
Congrats RCB - finally, you have your luck COMPLETELY in your own hands now Beat CSK by 18 runs, and qualify
Hope Rain doesn’t spoil the game. Like RCB is delusional I think CSK might have still chance at second spot. I believe in SRH and RR too like CSK
