Gradually, everyone is giving close attention to the calculation of points table of IPL. A win and a loss in last few matches will make a big difference. Royal Challengers Bangalore need a win in today's match. But they failed to play as per the requirement when the need more. Their history suggests defeat in the match but they need a win in this match. Moreover, Royal Challengers Bangalore is likely to go far this season. However, the performance of the field can give a proper solution to all these issues.

It is official now that DC is out of the playoffs race. DC started very poorly this season. I hope they ditch some of their old talent and acquire new ones. PBKS won because of Prabhsimran Singh's big contribution to the target. Except for a few batters, all others just scored single-digit runs.
LSG was the favorite against SRH. They have good batting depth, and after the departure of KL Rahul, this team looks good under the captainship of another Pandya. There are some issues with the bowling attack of LSG. Today, the first match between RR and RCB will be interesting. Only 11 more games are left, and apart from GT and CSK, all other teams are competing for the playoffs.

While scoring 200+ as a team in a T20 match is a commendable feat, chasing a 200+ total is a staggering accomplishment.
It needs the right start in the powerplay overs followed by a combination of sensible and attacking mindsets till the end to achieve the phenomenon.However, this article will discuss the teams that have made the impossible possible by chasing down targets of more than 200 in T20 International cricket.https://biographycon.com

It looked like an easy target for Delhi Capitals, and the start was really good scoring 65 runs at the end of batting powerplay without losing wickets. First wicket fell at 69 runs, and Warner kept things under control even when wickets continued to fall on the other end. Harpreet Brar and Rahul Chahar bowled well and changed the scenario of the match. Finally unexpected result came as Punjab Kings won the match by 31 runs. Anyhow this win is very important for them to keep their hope of reaching playoff.
Delhi had an excellent opportunity to win the game following their strong start, but unfortunately bad luck strikes once again. I never expected such dramatic twists in the game. It's disappointing to see a team struggle so much against spin. Their prime batters can't play against spin, which resulted in them losing the majority of their games. Although David Warner tried his best to carry the team, he simply didn't receive enough support from his teammates. The constant change in team combinations throughout the tournament didn't help either. Now with their eighth loss of the season, Delhi Capitals can no longer qualify for the IPL 2023 playoffs. Totally misfired this season. It looked like an easy target for Delhi Capitals, and the start was really good scoring 65 runs at the end of batting powerplay without losing wickets.

What's with Manish Pandey? His performance is going down and down. I was expecting him to impact the scoreboard but never expected it to be zero. I was checking his stats throughout his IPL career and found he has an SR that is unacceptable. Why DC is still having this player on their team, he should be dropped and a new talent should be given a chance.
Out of the total 167 runs scored by PBKS, it seems Prabhsimran Singh contributed more than 50 percent to the target. He started slow but his momentum changed after he scored his second half-century in this season. His playing style looks similar to Gill's, the timing and placement were spot on. Such consistent performance might get him selected in the National team.

As the opening batsman for Punjab Kings, Prabhsimran basically scored all the runs and the rest of the bowlers did not survive on the field. Prabhsimran is able to score a century with the magic of the bat and they get the win at the last moment. Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals have not performed well and fielding misses are more especially as Delhi Capitals are at the bottom of the points table. Punjab Kings have a chance if they win their next two matches then they can definitely go to knock out. However, Punjab Kings are more focused on performing well on the field.
Punjab's total was 167 runs in this match. Among them, Prabhsimran Singh scored 103 runs and Sam Curran scored 20 runs. Besides, none of the batsmen in the squad could bat well. But Punjab is very lucky that they managed to win this match despite giving a target of only 168 runs. Punjab's bowlers Harpreet Brar, Rahul Chahar and Nathan Elis bowled well. The performance of Delhi Capitals batsmen has been erratic since the start of this season. They are not playing well. Apart from Warner, every batsman in the squad has performed very erratically. This team is at the bottom of the points table only because of irregular batting.

The batting from Punjab Kings team was like a single man show. Opener Prabhsimran scored 103 from 65 balls. This helped the team to have 167 runs. Down to him it is Sam Curran who scored 20 runs and Raza scored 11 runs. Based on the performance from rest of the players, Raza can be brought earlier into the batting line-up.It looked like an easy target for Delhi Capitals, and the start was really good scoring 65 runs at the end of batting powerplay without losing wickets.

Sunrisers Hyderabad managed to collect 182 runs. It wasn't too bad a collection. The match would have been more competitive if the bowlers of Sunrisers Hyderabad had been able to perform well.
I think it's a bad season for Hyderabad because Thier main expensive brutal batter brook are out of form which runied all of Thier investment and plans, but tonight Thier batter scored well but in my mind they are 15 to 20 runs shorter because if they scored around 200 then it may worth for them. While on the other side Lucknow opening batting pair are out of color but through Thier middle order strong grip they able to scored the required Target. Bad bowling from Hyderabad help opponent to easily chased down the target without any trouble. 
SRH are officially out of this season. Their struggle has come to an end. They were doomed from the moment they purchased Brook for such a high price. Most of these expensive players never justify their high prices.
Brook, Curran, Unadkat etc are just a couple of examples. Also, Sharma is a decent batsman, but a horrendous bowler. He gave away 31 runs in a single over and changed the tide of the match. Lucknow moved closer to the playoffs.
Currently, Punjab are struggling very badly against DC. It looks like they might exit the season with Delhi.
With current situation of the league table now I have feeling DC, SRH, PBKS and KKR all are out of the race for the top four because their performance was not as expected even spend huge funds on few players which was completely failure even we can't blame players because things can happen like these in any sports with any player but SRH was surely the biggest disappointment in this season.Brook, Curran, Unadkat etc are just a couple of examples.

Right now, DC is having good time in this match against PBKS, and they can win this match from here which is surely not going to help them for having any chance for the top four here I will blame pitches as these were completely batting because now it's time to have better conditions for the batting and bowling as well because this can create more entertainment and better playing conditions which will help players which bought by franchise owners with huge funds.
Delhi Capitals vs Punjab Kings is a great game going on right now and Punjab Kings have already lost 3 wickets. In today's match, Punjab Kings as the strongest team is ahead of Delhi Capital in the points table in terms of ranking. However, the weakest team in IPL 2023 is Delhi Capitals as they occupy the last position at the top of the table points. If Delhi Capitals can score 150 plus runs in today's match then there is definitely a chance of victory. Delhi Capitals can win if their batting performance is good in their innings. But at the moment Punjab kings are batting their score is 86 runs for 3 wickets and 10.5 balls.
Sunrisers Hyderabad posted a good score in the first match of the day but lost the match against Lucknow Super Giants. From that point of view, Punjab Kings' collection in the 2nd innings was not good. They able to score only 167 runs after batting 20 overs. However, it will be difficult to predict especially which is low score match. Just look at the Punjab Kings score board where something different. Only Prabhsimran Singh scored a century in which every batsman failed. How is that possible? Following the first innings, it seems very easy that Delhi Capitals will win the match.PBKS got 167 which didn't seem to be a lot at first. But the way they have defended that is certainly incredible. They have been able to restrict DC in only 136. This is suddenly a very big when for the PBKS. This is also going to help them in the net run rate in my opinion. Prabhsimran did well to get his century.
When DC came to chase the total they never got going. The openers had a good start in my opinion. But they could not capitalize on that. After they lost their openers they actually were not able to form any kind of partnership at all. And that led them to their failure to score anything close to what they should have.

The match would have been more competitive if the bowlers of Sunrisers Hyderabad had been able to perform well. At the beginning of the innings, the bowlers of Sunrisers Hyderabad controlled the bowling, but they could not pick up wickets. This was the main reason for their defeat. All LSG batsmen except Kyle Mayers have batted well. In particular, I would say Nicholas Pooran's innings impressed everyone. Pooran collected 44 runs in just 13 balls. He is in very good form now.
I never ever thought that Rashid Khan can also bat, I never expected him to bat so agressively. It might be because of money or it might be because he loves to play in IPL.
He was always good with the bat, he did show his hitting abilities in BBL so virtually no doubt about his recent bravado. Although i do have a reservation about his last inning in the context of match and MOM award. The match was already lost when he came to bat and it was more like stat padding when you have nothing to lose, that's how i took his last night inning which was a blinder and crazy af.
Mumbai Indians were good overall that's why they have won the match.

SKY was in his best and we know he is the best batter across the globe in T20 format. What he did yesterday was what he is expected after his incredible performance in T20WC.
As a fan of cricket I think the player of the match should have gone to Rashid Khan as not only he bowled well, he also batted exceptionally good yesterday.
Rashid Khan is having good skills in batting and many times done things like this but this time he plays amazing with no one was expecting this from him in this match which was already ended for the GT because of early top order failure.

SKY is surely currently one of the best person in T20i with his amazing skills and now suddenly he is on fire for the MI which was having bad start of this season now back at the top of league table and have good chance for the play-offs but need to work on bowling.
I don't think he deserves for the Man of the Match because match was already ended, and his effort was not enough for the having any chance for the GT but if we have 5 to 10 runs lost then surely we can expect this reward for him but in current conditions I am agreed about SKY.

Rashid Khan has always been a tremendous batters and spinner and the whole world knows that yesterday he played brilliantly but unfortunately he can't make his team win because none of the other batters played good .

If one more batsman from gujrat titans played good thru could have won easily.
Maybe you mean Suriya Kumar Yadav made a lot of impact in the match. Suriya Kumar Yadav made a good impact in the match and it was because of his holding one edge that Mumbai Indians got such a huge score. But if you consider one thing, four wickets and 79 runs in 32 balls in T20 cricket, then Rashid Khan could not make an impact in the match?
Maybe the winning team is more likely to get the Man of the Match award but in my opinion Rashid Khan was a big contender for the Man of the Match overall.

SKY terrific performance in last few matches is paving MI way towards next round. With win over GT in last game, MI are now at number 3 position on points table. SKY scored 103 runs on 49 balls in last game against GT while he scored 83 runs on 35 balls against RCB. MI still have 2 more matches to play and if SKY can repeat his performance then MI will surely in next round.
