Here's a detailed IPL 2025 Playoff Qualification Scenario for all seven teams still in contention after Gujarat Titans바카라™ thrilling last-ball win at Wankhede. ( Full Coverage | Schedule | Points Table)
With just over a week remaining in the league stage, every match now carries high stakes 바카라” be it for a top-two finish or survival in the playoffs race.
Gujarat Titans (Played: 11, Points: 16, NRR: +0.793)
GT바카라™s last-ball heist against MI has all but sealed their playoff qualification. One more win from their remaining three matches 바카라” DC (a), LSG (h), and CSK (h) 바카라” will take them to 18 points, enough for a guaranteed top-four finish.
Even if they lose all three, they might still scrape through on NRR, though five other teams can potentially reach 17 or more. With two home matches left, and a strong 4-1 home record, GT are very well placed to not just qualify, but possibly finish in the top two.
Mumbai Indians (Played: 12, Points: 14, NRR: +1.156)
Despite the narrow defeat to GT, MI still control their own fate. Wins in their last two games 바카라” PBKS (a) and DC (h) 바카라” will ensure qualification. However, if they finish on 16 points with one more loss, they바카라™ll need favourable results elsewhere.
Their excellent NRR gives them a strong edge in case of a tie on points. But two defeats would eliminate them from the race.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (Played: 11, Points: 16, NRR: +0.482)
RCB are just one win away from securing a playoff berth, thanks to other results falling their way. Wins in even two of their remaining matches 바카라” LSG (a), SRH (h), and KKR (h) 바카라” will almost certainly secure them a top-four spot.
However, a top-two finish is still uncertain even if they win all three, as GT and PBKS could also reach or exceed 20 points.
Punjab Kings (Played: 11, Points: 15, NRR: +0.376)
PBKS have quietly become one of the most dangerous contenders. With three games left 바카라” DC (h), MI (h), and RR (a) 바카라” they can finish with 21 points and claim a top-two finish if they win all. Even two wins could be enough for qualification, while one win would leave them heavily dependent on NRR and other teams바카라™ results. Their fixture against MI could be a virtual knockout.
Delhi Capitals (Played: 11, Points: 13, NRR: +0.362)
DC have kept their campaign alive with a fortunate washout against SRH. But their form remains worrying, having lost four of their last five completed matches. To qualify, they must win all three of their remaining games 바카라” PBKS (a), GT (h), and MI (a).
Even 17 points may not guarantee a spot due to tight competition and NRR. Anything less than three wins will likely end their playoff hopes.
Kolkata Knight Riders (Played: 11, Points: 11, NRR: +0.249)
KKR are hanging by a thread. With just 11 points and three tough fixtures ahead 바카라” CSK (h), SRH (a), and RCB (a) 바카라” they must win all remaining matches to reach 17. Even then, qualification would depend on NRR and results of other teams.
Realistically, their playoff chances are slim unless they produce a stunning winning streak and chaos unfolds above them.
Lucknow Super Giants (Played: 11, Points: 10, NRR: -0.469)
LSG are on the brink of elimination after four defeats in five games. They must win all three upcoming fixtures 바카라” RCB (h), GT (a), and SRH (h) 바카라” just to reach 16 points. Even then, they바카라™ll need a significant swing in NRR and results elsewhere to stand a chance. A single loss from here ends their campaign.
