I agree with you. KKR had a good record of playing the playoff.  We have seen in the previous seasons that Kolkata played badly at the first but then then they played in the playoff.
On the other hand, RCB is now ranks third in the points table. But I don't think they will able to go to the next round. SRH or KKR can take the position of RCB.

KKR still in the good position to make it to playoffs because they won 4 out of 8 and only need four more from their remaining 8 matches so they can make changes now and can comeback into the team more stronger.I think KKR needs to send one big hitter in their opening to get their innings going like Narine but need to find someone new since Narine is completely our of form this season.
Right now MI and DC already fix for Play off's and KXIP for exit all other 5 teams in competition for remaining spots for play off's but KKR current form is not good specially batting line up bringing them down very badly they need to think about this other wise SRH RR and RCB all these ready for putting them out of this competiton they have 6 matches remaining with need 3 must wins which is not easy task for them with this batting.

KKR won the toss and they decided to bat first, captaincy change for KKR Eoin Morgan toom the responsibility since DK wants to focus more on his batting and the mystery bowler Narine dropped here. MI made one change in their side Nathan Coulter Nile comes in the place of Pattinson.MI seems much stronger as always.
MI is far better than KKR . Look at the MI bowling lineup .Rahul chahar , Trent Boult and the specialist Jasprit Bumrah . KKR won the toss an elected to bat first . R. tripathi and S. Gill are good opener . If they can make  a great start then KKR will be won tonight's match .Otherwise i don't think they are able to beat MI . KKR lose  the previous match with MI by 49 run. It was a huge difference. I lost yesterday's bet. I do not know what is my fortune today! Sad Sad

MI has always been the favorite to reach the finals alongside CSK, and with such poor performance of CSK, they have no opponent in this league. Delhi too seems in solid form with a lot of options around the team. It would probably be Delhi that would fight against Mumbai in finals. While kolkata would fight for at least the playoffs, they have had a good record of playing the playoff and I guess they would be successful to achieving the 3rd or 4th position this year too.

Kolkata Knight Riders did well to finish at 148/5. At one point, they were struggling at 61/5 after 11 overs. But Pat Cummins and Eoin Morgan staged a recovery, and they made 87 runs in the next 9 overs. That said, it seems like even that total was not enough to beat the Mumbai Indians. Right now they are cruising along, with Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock at the crease.
KKR were struggling to put fighting total on the scoreboard but MI both openers played a good knock and they chased the total just in 16.2 overs. I think now KKR selectors should think twice about their both department. Batsman played shorter innings and were in hurry to get back in the dressing room and bowlers performance was nothing against Rohit Sharma and Quinton de Kock. It was a complete one sided match and KKR bowlers were hardly hitting by both openers from the first over. I don't think KKR got any chance to get back in the game.

I think we are going to see some changes on KKR team from next matches and IMO they should give a chance to Kiwi speed star Lockie Ferguson. Although i am not seeing enough good option on their 2020 squad but giving opportunities to reserve bench players can bring some force to their next matches.

KKR were pretty lucky recently against Punjab which is why them losing in such a bad way against MI doesn't surprise me at all. Looks like changing captaincy didn't help KKR at all. In fact, it seems to have made things worse.

Just one minor news. Marian Gherasim becomes the youngest player to take part in a T20I (14y 16d). He made his debut today, for Romania against Bulgaria. The only pic I could find is from 2017: https://www.facebook.com/CricketRomania/posts/congratulations-to-the-brothers-gherasim-dragos-13-marian-10-and-laurentiu-14-wh/1756278287716253/
Damn. Crazy stuff. Never knew Romania and Bulgaria played Cricket. Good to see more and more countries joining this awesome sport.

Bet on Mumbai today as they mostly win against KKR. The score was quite less to chase and now they need only 8 runs from 4 overs. KKR's second loss against MI this season and this time they failed to even make a decent score batting first.
KKR recent form going against them very badly as they are losing race against some quality teams if they play like this then surely they are going to lost spot for play off's which could be very bad for them in this season even with very good and quality players MI and DC is doing good as they are not going to give any space to any one.

KKR made only 113/5 after 18 overs.This is going to be a low scoring match. MI bowlers bowled really well. Chance of Winning in this is MI but if KKR bowlers can do some miracle then they can win this match as well.
Anything can happen on this bowling pitch.  Today's match is a low scoring match.  However, KKR has scored over 35 runs in the last two overs.  Their final score was 148 for 5.  Pete Cummins has played very well. If KKR bowlers can do a little better then the match will be very competitive.  Taking 149 runs on this wicket will not be so easy for MI.  Although Mumbai Indians have started very well today.  They took 30 runs in the first three overs.

Now I am feeling MI DC and RCB are strong contenders for top spots and for remaining one spot we have to be some good and interesting matches because KKR and SRH both are now trying to improve and other two teams also can give some shocking perfomance in remaining event just KXIP is completely out of competition.

Gayle played really well but still he is not completely fit on the field as far as I know that is the biggest concern why he didn't included early but now they have nothing to lose, just go with the best and willing to pull mountain out of something.

A few days ago, Gayle was hospitalized for food poisoning. I suspect he hasn't fully recovered  from it, although the team management is saying otherwise. Anyway, his fans were happy to see him back on the pitch. However, KXIP needs to rethink their strategy. Gayle performs best, when he is opening the batting. I have a feeling that the no.3 slot is not very suitable for him.

Chris Gayle seems like power booster, between RCBvKXIP match we have watched this big man show. The KXIP a good team in all respects, but indeed unlucky. They should have won few more matches and Gayle have to join the team in the beginning. Some decision disappoint us and they ultimately fail to display in good position.

Chris Gayle is back in the Kings XI squad and that helped them to end their losing streak. After five consecutive defeats, they will be having a victory today. Stupidity from RCB also helped. It was difficult to understand why they should send Washington Sundar and Shivam Dube ahead of AB de Villiers. That prevented the RCB batsmen from making a total in excess of 200.
The reason Kohli said about sending Washington Sundar and Shivam Dube ahead of AB de Villiers is to keep the left right combination which was dumb as AB de Villiers could score much faster than any of these players in the team.

Chris Gayle played well but i do not think he is really fit and the ground was small and if he could perform the same in bigger grounds then he will be an asset but i think it is too late for them.

Big man can smash out of the ground no matter how big the ground is but he is not much comfortable playing the off spin so teams will pick spinners to tackle him in the future matches.RCB is in the good position of the points table to test things out that is why he took the experiment in my opinion.

Having left-right combination is good, but that doesn't mean that you should send in lower order batsmen at no. 3 or no.4. Both Sundar and Dube struggled against the bowling and they chewed up a lot of balls, leaving Kohli frustrated at the other end. And I couldn't notice any impact of the left-right combo on the bowlers (Ravi Bishnoi/ Murugan Ashwin). They bowled very tidely, without any error.
