RCB IPL 2024 Playoff Chances: Can RCB go to the playoffs?
RCB remains at the last position in the IPL 2024 points table. RCB has played eight matches so far in this year’s IPL and has won only one of them. Accordingly, the team has only 2 points and their Net Run Rate (NRR) is -1.046. Although looking at the condition of the team after the defeat against KKR, the team’s hopes of reaching the playoffs have suffered a big blow, but still the team can reach the playoffs.
RCB still have 6 matches left in IPL 2024 and with these six wins they will have 14 points. Teams need 16 points to reach the playoff stage of IPL. However, teams with 14 points can also advance in this round. But for this, RCB will now have to depend on other teams also. The most important thing is that RCB will have to win the remaining six matches and will also have to focus on increasing the net run rate.
In IPL 2018 to 2021, teams needed 14 points to reach the playoffs. In 2019, Sunrisers Hyderabad qualified for the playoffs with just 12 points. From 2022 onwards, when two new teams joined the league, 16 points are now required for the playoffs.
