The 25th match of IPL 2024 is to be played between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium on Thursday.

This match is also called the battle of two star players in which Rohit Sharma is on one side and Virat Kohli is on the other side. However, both these teams have not been able to make a good start to the season this year. Mumbai had initially lost three consecutive matches, but in the fourth match they registered their first win of the season against Delhi Capitals. On the other hand, Bangalore has lost four out of five matches. The Bengaluru team has not yet been able to win a single match at the opponent’s ground.

Once you finish it, why am I regretting something or missing something? But I regret one thing that Mumbai Indians had missed the opportunity to write me. I feel I have missed this opportunity, they (MI) wanted me not to play for Chennai Super Kings because I am from Chennai, they bid for me every time but could not get me in their team. I wish I could turn back time and change some things.

RCB Playoff Scenario: How many matches will Royal Challengers Bangalore have to win to go to IPL playoffs?
RCB is placed 9th in the points table with just 2 points from 5 matches played. RCB Team (Photo Source: IPL Official Website) RCB Playoffs: All the teams are giving tough competition to each other to reach the IPL 2024 playoffs (IPL 2024 Qualification Scenarios). On one hand, the players are performing brilliantly to help their team win, on the other hand, now the RCB fans are sitting with pen, paper and calculator. It is noteworthy that RCB has played 5 matches so far in which they lost only 4 matches. Royal Challengers Bangalore is struggling with the form of its players this season too. Only Virat Kohli is working for the team from one side but he is not getting support from any player. The team’s batting and bowlers are divided. RCB had faced Rajasthan Royals in their previous match. In this match, Bengaluru batted first and scored a big score on the basis of Kohli’s century. Apart from Kohli, no batsman played. RCB suffered a crushing defeat from Rajasthan Royals in the last match. At the same time, due to the defeat that Rajasthan Royals has given to RCB bowlers while chasing the target, Kohli will think that his century has been wasted. This is being said because Rajasthan’s Jos Buttler was not in form this season, so it was easy for RCB to dismiss him. But luck changed as Butler came in form and scored another century and led his team to victory. After the defeat in this match, RCB is at 9th position in the points table with only 2 points. Now the question to think is that if RCB wants to qualify for the playoffs, do they have that time left? So let us tell you that, yes Bengaluru can still make it to the playoffs. RCB Playoff Scenario: How many matches will RCB have to win and how many points will have to be taken to go to IPL 2024 Playoff? Know here- RCB has lost 4 out of 5 matches played so far and the path to the playoffs is becoming difficult. At the same time, RCB now has only 9 matches left. Currently the team is at 9th position in the team points table with 2 points. To enter the IPL playoffs, any team will have to win at least 8 matches. That means if you win so many matches then you will get a total of 16 points. RCB has already won one match and has to win 7 more matches. It is not enough for Bengaluru to just win, the net run rate will also have to be good so that it can easily enter the playoffs. If they win all the remaining 9 matches then the team can directly enter the play-offs without any problem. At present all the teams are performing well. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see what strategy RCB makes.
