examining which Indian Premier League teams have the best chance of making it to the postseason in 2024.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 league phase has just 14 games left, and in the last few weeks, the competition to make the playoffs has only gotten stronger. Though only four teams can qualify for the tournament’s knockout stage, nearly all 10 teams have a statistical chance to move on to the play-offs.
The clubs with the lowest prospects of making it to the playoffs are the Gujarat Titans, Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Mumbai Indians, and Punjab Kings, who have all lost at least seven times this season. They are still in the running to make it, though in all honesty, they would need a lot of positive outcomes to move forward.
Conversely, there are teams that are currently not fully qualified but whose destiny is in their own hands. Two of the tournament’s oldest teams, the Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals, have a chance to advance but need to win all of their remaining games. Let’s look at the four clubs that could make it to the IPL 2024 playoffs ahead of the last few weeks of the Indian Premier League.
The IPL 2024 Playoffs are as follows: Who will make it into the top 4?
- Super Giants of Lucknow
Despite not being in the top six right now, the Lucknow-based team has a strong chance of making the playoffs. They are still in the running to place among the top four this season and currently hold the fifth position in the standings. Since making its debut in 2022, the team has qualified for the playoffs each season, and this year they hope to go to the playoffs a third time.
This season, the squad’s uneven play in a few games has been a big source of concern. Their middle order has occasionally produced hit-or-miss innings, which has further complicated their batting. Although bowling has undergone many adjustments, it has generally served the team’s needs when called upon. If they want to participate in the playoffs this year, they will need to put on some outstanding all-around performances.
