IPL 2024: CSK Qualification Scenarios for IPL Playoffs, How Can CSK Qualify for IPL 2024 Playoff

CSK Qualification Scenarios: The race to the IPL 2024 playoff is getting heated as the tournament gets closer to its business end. With just a handful of games left in the league stage, the qualification scenarios for the IPL playoffs are anticipated to get tougher and more complex. Following the fixture last night between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK), there is a bit of interesting movement in the IPL points table.

Gujarat Titans, in front of their home crowd in Ahmedabad, brutally thrashed Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in match number 59 of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans (GT) were in a do-or-die situation as they languished at the bottom of the IPL Points Table. However, they managed to recover with a commanding win over CSK.

Chennai Super Kings (CSK), on the other hand, would have liked to win it, which certainly would have prevented them from being amidst the mid-table chaos. However, their subpar performance against the Gujarat Titans (GT) has forced them to be a part of the mess.

Had CSK won the game against Gujarat Titans (GT), they would easily have the number 3 spot in the points table. Subsequently, their way to the playoffs would have been much easier.

Still, CSK has chances aplenty to make corrections to their IPL 2024 campaign and head to the playoffs. Let’s now discuss CSK Qualification Scenarios for IPL Playoffs:

With two matches remaining in their IPL 2024 campaign, the best possible situation for them would be to win both of them with decent margins. Ruturaj Gaikwad-led CSK will play against Rajasthan Royals on May 12 and against Royal Challengers Bengaluru on May 18 to conclude their league-stage fixtures.

It’s noteworthy that in any case now, the net run rate is going to come into the picture. Even if CSK wins both of its remaining games, they will have to additionally compete on the net run rate to seal a playoff spot. Along with CSK, Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants will also be in the race for the playoffs.

If CSK wins only one of their remaining two matches, they will finish their run on 14 points, which is a dangerous territory to be in. CSK will be eliminated from the tournament, if Delhi Capitals (DC) wins both of its remaining matches.
