As we cross the halfway mark of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, the points table starts taking shape, hinting at the potential playoff contenders.
Here’s a quick snapshot of the standings as of April 25, 2024:
Rajasthan Royals are reigning at the top with an impressive seven wins out of eight matches, showcasing a balanced team performance in the batting and bowling departments. Their net run rate (NRR) of +0.698 is a testament to their dominant run.
Star Sports Network will be the one to telecast the matches live on TV for fans in India. Jio Cinema will provide live streaming for the CSK vs LSG match at no cost and free online.
Kolkatta Knight Riders follow closely, with their aggressive playing style earning them five wins in seven games. Their NRR of +1.206 is the highest in the league, indicating their penchant for big victories.
Sunrisers Hyderabad, tied on points with Knight Riders, have also bagged five wins but have played one extra match. Their positive NRR of +0.914 keeps them in good stead for a playoff spot.
Lucknow Super Giants are in a tight spot with five wins and three losses. Their NRR of +0.148 suggests close encounters; they must maintain their winning momentum to secure a playoff berth.
Chennai Super Kings find themselves in the middle of the table. With four wins and four losses, they’ll be looking to improve their consistency in the second half of the season.
Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans are on eight points, but the former has a better NRR, keeping them just above the latter in the standings. Both teams need a series of wins to climb up the ladder.
Mumbai Indians are struggling to find form this season, with only three wins from eight matches. They’ll need to regroup quickly to have any chance of making it to the playoffs.
Punjab Kings and Royal Challengers are at the bottom of the table, with the latter facing a particularly tough season with only one win from eight games. They’ll need a miraculous turnaround to change their fortunes.
