What's going on in IPL. I thought KXIP will atleast reach the play off round. And actually they have a lot of chance to go olay off. I am very sad today by seeing KXIP lose two match in a raw and also lose the hope of play off round. I can not look at the Rahul's eye.  Cry
CSK spoiled KXIP's party. I think KXIP win the match today and will confirm their tickets of playoff round, but nothing happen in order. Appears as though KXIP was in under pressure. If they played their normal game, they could have effortlessly dominated the game. Drama of IPL not over yet.

Actually Deepak Hooda played a good knock and saved his team from low total to a fighting 153 but on the other side CSK is playing really good in their powerplay overs and already score 63 runs at the end of 7 overs with no loss of wickets.It looks like CSK is not going to finish this tournament at the bottom of the table. Cheesy

What difference it is going to make, even if they finish with a win today. Before the start of the tournament, everyone were considering them as one of the favorites to win the trophy (along with MI, DC and KKR). But their performance was appalling. And it is not just the number of matches they lost. They way in which they lost some of the matches also matter. I remember one or two matches in which they lost, simply because their batsmen (Dhoni, Jadhav) were playing defensively when 8-9 runs were needed per over.
CSK has been trolled as the worst team ever playing innthe IPL due to the age factor but atleast they found good combination of Youngster and experienced player which will be really helpful for them in the next season which may happen in the next 6 or 6 months.Dhoni confirmed that he is going to play for CSK more at the time of Toss.Yes agree that CSK gave too much opportunities for Jadhav which could be a big change if it was given to Ruturaj or other youngsters because they could be a contender for top 4 if they got 14 points in their table.

Today it was not a Gayle day and its impact we could see on KXIP, though Deepak played well for his 62 not out but target of 154 for CSK was just not that big. CSK comprehensively won the match with 9 wickets left. Top order played well for CSK in this match and Punjab bowlers dint look that effective today and not much wicket taking delivery that could have troubled the batsman.

Feeling bad for KXIP who is now out of the playoff race, despite some of the good turnaround matches they have played till now in last few matches this dint helped them to make it to top 4.

My picks for today will be Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals.

Kings XI Punjab looking to disappoint again today. They have only scored 69 runs in the 11 overs. They need to push hard and score atleast 100 more runs in the next 9 overs to give themselves some sort of total to bowl with. CSK looking back in the form but it is too late for them.

As long as Nicholas Pooran and Chris Gayle was there, KXIP had a chance to set up a decent total. Mayank Agarwal failed once again (despite a quick start) and their inexperienced lower middle order won't be able to do much (Mandeep Singh / Deepak Hooda). Actually it is unfair to ask Gayle to rescue them every time. He did that in the previous matches, but wasn't able to repeat this time.

There are only 3 days and 4 matches left to be sure which team will play in the playoff. I think RCB and DC are under the most pressure. If KXIP wins against CSK and SRH will win the match against MI. Then between RCB and DC, one team cannot be able to play in the playoff. But they were at the top of the points table from the start of the tournament.
Which team will you bet on in these four matches?
I am expecting DC to fall out of the qualification in the next few days and i am expecting KXIP and SRH along with RR fighting for the spot. DC started well but they went off the track as their top order players were struggling and the Shikhar Dhawan century started their fall as they lost the rest of the matches after his first century Cheesy.

My picks for today will be Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals.

DC started very well. They were at the top position of the point table. I thought they might ensure playoff from the first position. But I’m completely wrong. Now their playoff is almost uncertain. But I would be personally happy if they are able to play in the playoff.
Today I bet on CSK and KKR. I bet on CSK because they played well in the previous match. Hope they will win today's match too.
The match of KKR vs RR is unpredictable to me. I think both teams have equal chances to win .Depends on luck and on field performance. But I bet on KKR, because I like this team Cheesy

KXIP only scored 77 at the end of 13 overs but lost their 4 top order wickets which means only the middle order who are untested this year for sure so they stuck for now.It is important to score atleast 170 to defend the target which is the par score on today's ground.

despite being 41 year’s old Chris Gayle plays like a player who’s in his mid thirties, and I’m hoping that we continue to see some more big innings from him provided KXIP can manage to survive in this tournament.
Chris Gayle is not playing like a player in his mid thirties as he cannot even move in the field and he is fielding where the ball is least expected but his power is incredible as he could power the ball out of the ground if the ball is in his hitting range.

DC immediately needs to introspect what’s went wrong for them in the past few matches, and then quickly fix it or else they’ll be dumped from the tournament.
Their batting is terrible, the openers are not giving them the start and without a good total on the board the bowlers cannot do anything. They won the matches because of their bowling but if the batsman fail there is nothing they can do.
DC is an inconsistent team, their bowling unit gave the opportunity to wins and also some individuals performance in different matches but they keep failing as a team, they were at the top in the half way of this tournament but now their playoff jope is hanging in the air.

This evening has being really too many ups and down like both the game being a low scoring game . Opening up more space now for the 4th spot as teams with equal points . Only thing here is if SRH wins the next match as well quite comfortable then with positive NRR then mostly they will make it and if they lose then it would be further interesting for other teams to make it .

Here is the equation for the qualification into playoffs

Last four matches and qualification-elimination
- No dead rubbers this season
- DC-RCB a virtual QF for a spot in Qualifier 1; loser may go through if other results come their way
- Two teams will qualify with 14 points (has happened only once previously - in 2010)
- SRH the only side outside top 3 that have fate in their hands; beat MI on Tues & qualify
- KXIP, RR & KKR may get eliminated even if they win

Tomorrow we can find the fate of KXIP, RR and KKR about playoffs.It is the only season the teams are not yet qualified for the playoffs even after completing 14 matches for each so total 52 games.
This season I am completely out from IPL due to many reasons but right now checking table and feeling its really interesting end of this round as tomorrow we have first match between CSK vs KXIP if KXIP won then surely they are going on second spot and this can give them good edge and second match is between RR vs KKR both need to win very good margin as both teams not good in NRR and if they want some chance then surely need with some good margin then we can hope for them Now DC is also in danger due to their current form and they have very tough match against RCB if they won then surely they will in otherwise they also have to out of this tournament.

CSK vs KXIP match, I won't be surprised if CSK destroys them as they are now playing spoilsport for most teams who are trying to claim the 4th position. KKR would do everything in their hand to get a birth in the top 4 and it is the same for RR. All matches from now onwards are a must-watch.

This is turning out to be a bad evening for cricket fans. Earlier we had one sided game in form of DC vs MI, where Mumbai thrashed the delhi, now RCB vs SRH seems to heading on the same direction. RCB's big guns already gone and they didn't even cross 100 runs. Considering its Sharjah and dew effect in second inning for bowling side, RCB is in deep trouble.

MI are in very good shape and its hard to beat them. I think they will be the deserving champion of this year IPL. However i think Royal Challengers Bangalore performance was disappointing today and if they lose this match (which look like they will), it will be a big upset for them. Too many teams on 14 and 12 points make every point crucial at this stage.

What a match we have had. Even the Chris Gayle 99 could not take Kings XI Punjab towards the victory. That's how tough is the competition in this year's IPL. Still its not sure who will make to the top 4 teams. With the loss of Kings XI Punjab, the points table is very much open now for teams to qualify.

And let's not forget the fact that the KXIP management refused to include Gayle in the playing XI during the initial 6-7 matches, because they wanted to give repeated chances to Glan Maxwell and mediocre players such as Mandeep Singh and Sarfaraz Khan. Gayle has played a huge role during the second half of the group stage, and without him, KXIP would have been in very bad shape.
Chris Gayle is a big name in this short format of cricket and his position exceptionally upper side. Just after Chris Gayle back into the squad implies regeneration of hope that boost KXIP in the race of playoffs. It's unbelievable how Maxwell keeps playing everything when he has been struggling so far. Honestly, RR batting is too good in chasing as KXIP bowlers were lesser effective yesterday.

@onecall123 despite being 41 year’s old Chris Gayle plays like a player who’s in his mid thirties, and I’m hoping that we continue to see some more big innings from him provided KXIP can manage to survive in this tournament.

If both DC and RCB lose their matches, then everything will come down to the RCB vs DC clash on Monday. The winner will qualify for the playoffs.
And also the losing team may have chance to slip from the top four because lot of teams will stick with 14 points so the run rate will decide which one to go and definitely RCB and DC has less run rate difference even though they are in top of the table now.

MI won the match one sided by 9 wickets and Ishan was not out at 72. DC is not consistent team and in last 5 matches they have lost 4. Only some days they play amazing cricket and rest of their matches are very ordinary and this would not help them in the upcoming matches with type of performances unless they make some change in plan as a team unit.

MI will mostly be top of the table it seems now.
 

You can simply generalize their performance how DC were flopped their last four games. They must work on their batting side. Otherwise I don't see them in playoffs. If they manage qualify, then there will be no fun since KXIP can give more challeng. 

@ibuddy122505 DC immediately needs to introspect what’s went wrong for them in the past few matches, and then quickly fix it or else they’ll be dumped from the tournament.

Maybe this is turning into a bad night but this is making the tournament more excited because if RCB lose this match then 6 teams will be at the verge to get selected into top 4.If SRH win tonight then they will move to top 4 for sure because they are the only team has positive net run rate.
