CSK still requires 36 runs from 20 balls and 7 wickets left. Ruturaj is batting well at 71 runs. Only thing here is that if CSK wins it then KKR will just make it more difficult for 4th spot, else if they win it then today they will be at 4th spot and also will remain in the content to be at No 4 if they will the last match as well.
It's Do or Die match for KKR to keep their hope alive for the playoffs. It's tricky part that Officially none of the team has been reached yet for playoffs. CSK has reached very close to win, they just need 10 runs in next 6 balls.

EDIT: Likely it won't be easy to stop CSK, especially when the score and bowling unit is such poor. CSK won by 6 wickets!
CSK could've started this performance before few matches. I think now CSK will stand as a deciding team for playoff. CSK has got one more match, and that's against KXIP. For them two matches are left, one is against CSK. If the two matches were won it easily enters playoff, if not it'll be into pressure because SRH still have two games and if it wins there will be close call to enter playoff.

At the end of the game CSK has able to win the match by the help of Jadeja. He played a good game in the last two overs where CSK needed 30 runs in 12 balls.
Now it’s bonus point for KXIP. And it’s help to increase the chance of KXIP to go to playoff round. But it also depends on KXIP next two matches performance

On the other hand CSK has now chance to go playoff.
Did you mean CSK has no chance or now? I think you mean no chance as CSK has no chance of going playoff from this situation as they are in the last place and 4 team has 12 points and above.

CSK has no chance and below table shows the standing of each team after 12 matches played by every team.
Now there are two matches left for every team (as each team will play 14 matches) and all of these remaining matches will be do and die for most of the teams to qualify for the playoffs.

It's gonna be a tough fight for no 4. spot cause if u see practically, kxip and kkr have a slightly good chance. But you can't tell because if srh win both there remaining matches then I guess  SRH will qualify as their net run rate is very strong. As for now with CSK out of the League, RR have a chance but a very hard chance(due to points as well as run rate).
Officially no team has been selected yet for playoffs, it shows how close the teams are playing year by year.KKR is looking good at the moment but they need to take wickets of CSK if they want to win this match. On the other side youngster again playing a good knock for CSK and will take the innings deep as much as he can so at the end big hitters can make up in the death overs.

No doubt today's match is very important for KKR in order to get back to the top 4 for CSK there is nothing to lose as they are already out of the tournament.

The Win probability for CSK is 45% and for KKR is 65% but CSK can destroy the dream of KKR reaching the top 4, KKR lost to KXIP in the last match and CSK won their last match with RCB.
The last 5 overs the KKR is throwing the bat at everything and they need to score well above 180 to make sure that CSK would not chase that as they will play their best cricket as they have nothing to loose in this season and some of the players need to put their name for contention in the next years IPL and hence expecting some rejuvenated performance from CSK batsman.

KKR start the match with scoring 4 runs in first ball and 3 fours in first over. It's really a good start by Gill. Don't know how much time they can keep this. But since this a do or die match for KKR hope they will try to something better today. On the other hand CSK has no chance to go playoff. Means maybe they will not take this match seriously. btw score till now KKR 28/0 (3.2)

KKR needs to win today's match against CSK, but I am not that excited about their chances. When was the last time any of their bowlers (apart from Varun Chakravarthy) had a match winning performance? Sunil Narine looks like a shadow of his former self. Pat Cummins is yet to do any justice to his huge price tag. And the less talked about Kamlesh Nagarkoti and Prasidh Krishna, that better. Overall, KKR has been a huge disappointment this season (after starting well, with 4 wins from the first 6 matches).
KKR has tough chance to make it to playoffs even if they win their remaining two matches, and they still don't find their right combination with few injuries as well. CSK is playing without any pressure and too much of experiment on their combination for their next season's good combination strategy.

Tomorrow Kolkata Knight Riders needs to win the match against Chennai Super Kings if they want to qualify. I hope KKR will bring back Andre Russel back in the team.

First I thought maybe we will see a good match by Virat and AB. But unfortunately both have not played good match today. I don't know why they sad me most of the time.Smiley
It is because MI have the bowlers to restrict them  Cheesy. RCB fell short of 15 to 20 runs and if they were able to score according to the start they got they could have won the match.

BTW 164 is a good score for both side. If RCB can present their best performance it's possible to win this match, again if MI do little good they can easily reach the destination today. My bet to MI.
The difference here was that RCB has the worst bowling line up while MI has the batting dept even with the absence of Rohit Sharma and anything around 8.2 run rate is achievable for MI with the bowlers RCB had.

The scenarios have completely changed. This week was good for the bottom ranking teams, and really bad for some of the top ranking teams such as DC and MI. Earlier I was thinking that teams such as DC and MI are almost assured of playoff qualification. Even if they lose some of their matches, it won't affect their chances. But the problem is that they lost those matches, and they lost them by huge margins (yesterday DC went down by 88 runs).
The net run rate will be a huge factor as all the bottom ranked teams started winning and there is even a possibility that DC would not get a spot at the semi finals if they loose matches again and the bottom teams could win every match. The situation is that CSK is completely out of the tournament and the teams like KKR, Punjab and even SRH have a chance to get the spot.
It looks 4 teams are going to fight for that fourth spot, we can get conclusive teams which may enters into the playoffs in the next 3 matches. Tomorrow match between KKR vs CSK can find the fate of KKR in this year's playoffs will be possible or not.

It still looks like 50/50 and can go either way. 17th over, which is being bowled by Chris Morris is making the difference. Both Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya are struggling to score runs against him. 31 runs needed off 19 balls, and this can get very tight. A lot will depend on who is going to bowl the remaining three overs. Steyn needs to bowl at least one, and he was disappointing earlier.

Edit: boundary of the last ball. 27 needed from 3 overs.

RCB scored 164 runs in 20 overs by losing 6 wickets. MI is a very good team in this season, and they are in a great from now. Now they are at the top of the points table. I don't think it is difficult for them to win this match by chasing 164 runs. However, this time IPL is so unpredictable. Anything can be happen.

I agree with you. If RCB wants to win today's match, they have to do their best bowling today. Otherwise, MI can win today's match with a little afford. 165 is not a big target for a good team like MI.
After 5 over MI able to score 37 without losing any wickets.
If RCB wants to secure their wins then wicket could be game changing moment of this low run chess. MI needs only 8+ runs of every overs to win the match, not a big deal for them if they continue current strike rate. At early MI have been struggling by giving unwanted wickets.

Match is on interesting mode as MI require 48 in 5 overs. If MI loses 1-2 wickets, then it would be more interesting else Pandya and Suryakumar are on crease and can easily chase down this target. Surya has completed his half century. Also, it is battle for 1st spot as well as if RCB wins it they move to 1st in ranking.
