With just 12 matches remaining in the league stage of IPL 2024, it's highly likely that the top four teams identified mid-season will secure playoff berths. Our earlier analysis hinted at the emergence of two clusters, with teams like Royals, Knight Riders, Sunrisers, and Super Kings leading the batting front.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru's chances for playoffs improved after defeating PBKS.
KKR and RR, both on 16 points with three matches to go, are poised to secure top positions. Even if KKR loses all remaining matches, their high net run rate gives them an edge.
Sunrisers, with two home games left, have shown prowess in Hyderabad. Strong performances here could place them in contention for a top-two finish.

Despite not hitting top form, CSK's consistent performance keeps them in contention for playoffs. Their track record suggests they could secure a spot in the final four.
LSG's recent defeats have dented their momentum and NRR, making their playoff journey challenging. They need victories in their remaining matches to stay in the hunt.
Delhi Capitals, bolstered by Jake Fraser-McGurk's aggressive batting, have gained momentum. They aim to secure victories in crucial encounters to keep playoff hopes alive.
Despite a valiant effort in the latter half of the season, RCB's playoff chances remain slim. Dependency on other match outcomes makes their qualification unlikely.
