Rajasthan Royals have secured their spot in the IPL 2024 playoffs, becoming the second team after table-toppers Kolkata Knight Riders to do so. Delhi Capitals’ recent win over Lucknow Super Giants ensured Rajasthan’s qualification to the final four. With 16 points from 12 matches, the inaugural season champions sit comfortably in second place.
Following Tuesday’s results, regardless of their last two matches’ outcomes, Rajasthan Royals have solidified their place in the playoffs. Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals, now with 14 points like Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad, must rely on a sequence of other results to determine their playoff fate.
Lucknow Super Giants’ chances are slim, with only one match remaining and even a victory against the Mumbai Indians won’t elevate them into the top four. The battle for the remaining two playoff spots is likely to intensify among CSK, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and RCB.
