<p><strong>IPL 2022 Playoff venues confirmed by BCCI, Women?s Challenger Series to be held in Lucknow:</strong> The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) President Sourav Ganguly has recently confirmed that Lucknow?s Ekana Stadium won?t host the IPL 2022 playoff matches. He further mentioned that the Women?s Challenger Series will be held from May 24th to 28th.</p>



<p>The ongoing season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is being held in the four venues across Maharashtra. The three prominent stadiums of Mumbai along with Pune?s MCA Stadium are hosting the Indian T20 League.</p>



<p>It was earlier expected that Ahmedabad and Lucknow may get a chance to stage the knockout matches of the IPL 2022, as the two cities are making their debut. However, Ganguly rubbished all the claims and confirmed that Kolkata?s Eden Gardens along with Ahmedabad?s Narendra Modi Stadium will host the four playoff matches of the ongoing IPL 2022.</p>



<p>The qualifier and eliminator 1 will be staged in the iconic Eden Gardens while the eliminator 2 and final of the IPL 2022 will be held in the Narendra Modi Stadium.</p>



<p>He further mentioned that 100 per cent crowd capacity will be allowed to enter the stadium during the knockout phase to watch IPL 2022 matches.</p>

<p>?As far as the men?s IPL&nbsp; knock-out stage matches are concerned, it would be held in Kolkata and Ahmedabad, with hundred per cent attendance allowed for the matches to be played after the league staged finishes on May 22,? said BCCI President Sourav Ganguly as quoted as saying by India TV.</p>



<p>Sourav Ganguly also confirmed that the Women?s Challenger Series will be held in Lucknow?s Ekana Stadium from May 22nd to 28th.</p>



<p>?The Women?s Challenger series will be held between May 24-28 at Lucknow?s Ekana Stadium,? he added.</p>



<p>Notably, the Indian Premier League (IPL) season fifteen is halfway down with all teams completing their seven league stage matches. So far, debutant side Gujarat Titans have executed their plans phenomenally well under rookie skipper Hardik Pandya and are the best performing side.</p>



<p>Hardik has led his team to six IPL 2022 wins and the franchise is currently placed atop the points table. Meanwhile, a five-time champion, Mumbai Indians have been the worst-performing team so far. The franchise has bagged an unwanted record of seven consecutive defeats in the tournament.</p>

IPL 2022 Playoff venues confirmed by BCCI, Women?s Challenger Series to be held in Lucknow

<p>The TATA IPL 2022 is about to come to a closure and most of the games are done and dusted. Every team now has just 2 to 3 games left and the business end of the tournament is expected to take place in Ahmedabad. The Gujarat Titans on Tuesday became the first team to qualify for the playoffs after beating the Lucknow Super Giants. But what are the qualification scenarios for all the other teams? Which team will qualify in what case? Here is an in-depth look at the same: </p>



<h2>Mumbai Indians Cannot Qualify for the Playoffs in IPL 2022:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/05/mi-qualification-min-1024x681.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-89569" /><figcaption>IMG SRC:  Dainik Bhaskar</figcaption></figure>



<p>The equation for the Mumbai Indians is simple. Under any circumstances, they will not be able to qualify for the playoffs. They can at the maximum reach 10 points in the case where they win all of their remaining games and qualification is affirmed at 16 so there is no chance. ?</p>



<h2>Chennai Super Kings May or May Not Qualify for the Playoffs in IPL 2022: </h2>



<p>The Chennai Super Kings have a very outside chance of qualification. The first prerequisite that they would want is to win all of their remaining matches. Also, they need to make sure that one spot is left such that qualification happens at the 14-point mark. However, this case is very rare as there are 4 teams on 10 points with 3 games to play. So, out of the 4 one will have 16 and others can have 16 or 14. The Super Kings will then be dependent on their NRR. In short, their chances are very slim. ?</p>



<h2>Punjab Kings May or May Not Qualify for the Playoffs in IPL 2022: </h2>



<p>The<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/ipl-2022-punjab-kings-pbks-squad-2022-playing-11-schedule/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Punjab Kings</a> have 3 games left and are currently poised at 10 points. For qualification at 16 points, they need to win all their 3 games. It has become a do-or-die tournament for the Punjabi Munde! They had a formidable team at the start of the season but have failed to capitalize on the momentum they make. Their games are against Delhi, Sunrisers, and Bangalore. ?</p>



<h2>Kolkata Knight Riders May Not Qualify for the Playoffs in IPL 2022: </h2>



<p>The situation of the Kolkata Knight Riders is very grim. They have only 2 games left and they have 10 points in the bag. At the maximum, they can get 14 points. Qualification at 14 points is a very rare thing to happen. The other teams in the competition are Punjab, Chennai, Sunrisers and Delhi. Their 2 games are against LSG and SRH. ?</p>



<h2>Sunrisers Hyderabad May or May Not Qualify for the Playoffs in IPL 2022:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/05/srh-qualification-min-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-89570" /><figcaption>IMG SRC: DNA India</figcaption></figure>



<p>The Sunrisers Hyderabad may just qualify for the playoffs. The Hyderabadi Hurricanes have 3 games left and have 10 points in the bag. The only job for them is to win every game that they come across and hope Delhi loses any one of its games. This scenario will allow ideal qualification for the Sunrisers. They have 3 games left and the games are against Kolkata, Punjab, and Mumbai Indians. The game against Kolkata and Punjab are virtual knockout games like the one who wins them goes through. ?</p>



<h2>Delhi Capitals May Qualify for the Playoffs: </h2>



<p>The<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/ipl-2022-delhi-capitals-dc-squad-2022-playing-11-schedule/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Delhi Capitals</a> have a good chance at qualification. Their situation is the same as the Sunrisers but they have a good NRR in their favor. The team is in a do-or-die situation. Each game is a knockout game for them. The Capitals have qualified for the playoffs in the last 2 years and would want to maintain the streak as well. They are at 10 points with 3 games to go. Their games are against Mumbai Indians, Punjab Kings, and<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/ipl-2022-rajasthan-royals-rr-squad-2022-playing-11-schedule/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Rajasthan Royals. T</a>he game against the Punjab Kings is a virtual qualifier. ?</p>



<h2>RCB May Qualify for the Playoffs:?</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/05/rcb-qualification-min-1024x569.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-89571" /><figcaption>IMG SRC: The Indian Express.</figcaption></figure>



<p>The Royal Challengers Bangalore may or may not be able to qualify. They are a team that is at the 4th position in the table but just a slip-up can cost them a lot. They currently are at 14 points with 2 games to go. RCB can at the maximum get 18n points. They have to get 18 points under any circumstance as their NRR is very poor as compared to other teams. So, they can come to 16 points but then will eventually not find a place in the playoffs due to their NRR. It is a do-or-die situation for them as well. Under any circumstance, they have to win both games. ?</p>



<h2>Rajasthan Royals Must Qualify for the Playoffs in IPL 2022: </h2>



<p>It will be ideal for the Rajasthan Royals to qualify for the playoffs. The team is at 14 points with 3 games to spare. They have to win 2 games to ensure qualification but even 1 victory will seal the deal. They have a good NRR and that works in their favor. The 3 games will be against Delhi Capitals, LSG, and CSK. Their game against LSG can decide whether they qualify at number 2 or number 3. Rajasthan will be keen for the <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/icc-test-player-rankings-rank-1-to-10-updated-on-13-march-ashwin-reclaims-top-spot-and-jaiswal-into-top-10-full-icc-mens-test-player-standings/">top 2 spots as the teams in the top 2 spots</a> get a double shot at qualification for playoffs. ?</p>



<h2>Lucknow Super Giants Must Qualify for the Playoffs: </h2>



<p>The Lucknow Super Giants are sure to get a place in the playoffs. They are currently at 16 points with 2 games to spare. They just have to win any one of the 2 games. The LSG team will however be concerned about being ruthless and qualifying at position 1 or 2. As mentioned earlier the teams placed at number 1 and number 2 get 2 opportunities to be eligible for the final. The Lucknow team management including Gautam Gambhir said in a recent clip that the team needs to have a fighting spirit and it needs to learn to never give up. ?</p>



<p>Gujarat Titans have already qualified for the Playoffs in TATA IPL 2022. ?</p>

<p><strong>Predicting Top 4 Teams for Tata IPL 2022 Playoffs:</strong> Season fifteen of the Indian Premier League (IPL) is now slowly proceeding towards its business end and the contest between the teams is getting hotter than ever. So far, just a single playoff berth has been confirmed while three places are still vacant.</p>



<p>The Debutant side, Gujarat Titans confirmed their seat after winning match number 58 of the Tata IPL 2022. Hardik Pandya and Co have been outstanding in their debut season and are the first <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/latest-psl-points-table-2024-updated-march-14-top-4-playoff-qualified-teams-playoff-matches-highest-run-getters-highest-wicket-takers-updated-list-psl-2024/">team to get qualified for the playoff</a> seat.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians (MI) is the only side that has been eliminated from the tournament following their consecutive defeats in the tournament. </p>



<p>With three slots to be filled, the tussle between eight sides is on. The likes of Lucknow Super Giants, Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Capitals, Punjab Kings, Royal Challengers Bangalore, Kolkata Knight Riders, Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad are all in the fray to move up the table and seal a playoff berth.</p>



<p>This article will take you through - Predicting Top 4 Teams for the Tata IPL 2022 Playoffs.</p>



<h2><strong>Predicting Top 4 Teams for Tata IPL 2022 Playoffs:</strong></h2>



<h3><strong>Gujarat Titans:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/05/GT-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-89608" /><figcaption>Image: IPL</figcaption></figure>



<p>Hardik Pandya-led Gujarat Titans (GT) have already qualified for the playoffs. The franchise officially has got a big ?Q? against their name in the points table after featuring in 12 matches. GT have managed to win nine out of 12 and have been simply superb in their debut season.</p>



<h3><strong>Lucknow Super Giants:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/04/Lucknow-Super-Giants-LSG-2.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-89009" /><figcaption>Image: IPL</figcaption></figure>



<p>Another debutant team, Lucknow Super Giants is highly probable to seal a playoff berth. KL Rahul and Co just need a solitary victory in their remaining two matches to qualify for the playoffs.</p>



<p>LSG will lock horns against Rajasthan Royals on May 15 in their next fixture following which they will compete against Kolkata Knight Riders on 18th May.</p>



<p>Even if LSG lose their remaining two matches, they will still have a few chances to make it to the final four. LSG have 16 points already and in the end will boil down to the net run rate.</p>

<h3><strong>Rajasthan Royals:</strong></h3>

<p>Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals are also probable to seal a seat in the playoffs of the Tata IPL 2022. RR have 14 points already in their bag and needs to do well in their remaining two matches.</p>



<p>Of late, RR have shown derailed performance despite displaying brilliance in the initial matches. The inaugural champions will have to buckle up in their last two league stage matches to get a berth in the playoffs without the interference of net run rate.</p>



<h3><strong>Royal Challengers Bangalore:</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/2022/04/Royal-Challengers-Bangalore-LSG-RCB-IPL-2022-Sportzpics-640.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-88876" /><figcaption>Royal Challengers Bangalore players during match 31 of the TATA Indian Premier League 2022 (IPL season 15) between the Lucknow Super Giants and the Royal Challengers Bangalore held at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai on the 19th April 2022

<p>A big tussle is being seen between RCB, DC and Punjab Kings to get the fourth playoff seat. Though Delhi is also a good contender to pip RCB and PBKS in the points table to get a top-four finish, however, we back Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) to take up the final place due to their consistent performance throughout the IPL 2022.</p>



<p>RCB are on roll this season as the franchise has notched up 14 rating points in their 12 outings. Their next two challenges are against Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans respectively.</p>



<p>To get a sureshot playoff berth, RCB will have to win both their remaining matches otherwise it will boil down to the net run rate, which is their weak link. The net run rate of RCB currently stands at -0.115 which is a concern for the team going forward.</p>
