This season of IPL is changing every moment. Whereas RCB i.e. Royal Challengers Bangalore was on the verge of being out of the tournament, but now after back-to-back wins, the team's chances of reaching the playoffs have once again become stronger. However, it is also true that it will not be easy for him to reach the top 4. Because a team not only has to win its own matches, but it also has to hope that the results of other teams will also be in line with it. This does not seem possible, but not impossible either. Let us know how Royal Challengers Bangalore will make it to the playoffs.
RCB's net run rate improved
In the match played in Dharamshala on Wednesday, RCB defeated Punjab Kings by 60 runs. He got many benefits from this. Due to the big win, the team got two points and their net run rate also increased significantly. Because of this the team can still go to the top 4. After this victory, once again the expectations of RCB fans have skyrocketed. To reach the top 4, RCB will first have to win both their remaining matches at any cost. Interestingly, there has been no change in the position of RCB even after the last win. The team was in seventh place earlier also and is still there. But their net rate was higher than LSG and Delhi Capitals who were ahead of them. Even though LSG and DC have 12 points each, their net run rate is in minus and RCB is now in plus.
RCB faced defeat in 6 consecutive matches
RCB lost 6 consecutive matches. If the team had won even one of these matches, its fate would have been in its own hands, but that is the thrill of the IPL. Now he will have to depend on his victory as well as the results of other teams. While RCB now has ten points, Delhi Capitals, Chennai Super Kings and LSG have 12 points each. That means RCB is just two points behind this Timothy. If RCB wins both its remaining matches, its total will be 14 points, which is enough to qualify. But the problem is that other teams will also play their matches and if they win then RCB's problems will increase.
How will RCB reach top 4?
RCB has to play the remaining two matches on home ground, this will definitely benefit the team. RCB will face Delhi Capitals on May 12 and Chennai Super Kings on May 18. CSK team will play three more matches. If Chennaiyin team loses its remaining three matches then the path will become easier for RCB. CSK currently has 12 points, that is, if the team continues to lose then it will have only 12 points, while RCB will have 14 points. Whereas Delhi team will have to face defeat first against RCB and then against LSG. But they will have to win from Chennai. That means Chennai will stop at 12 points. RCB will have 14 points, while after losing to LSG, Delhi can only beat Chennai and then Bengaluru. In such a situation, Delhi team will also stop at 14 points only.
Mathematics of RCB going to playoffs
According to this equation, Rajasthan Royals and KKR will be the top 2 teams, while the third team will be RCB and LSG team can remain at the fourth position. Apart from this there is another possibility. What will happen if SRH and CSK lose all their matches from here? SRH team will stop at 14 points and CSK team will stop at 12 points. If both these teams reach 16 points then there could be trouble for RCB. But if only one team reaches 16 points then the team's chances will increase. In such a situation, RCB will be tied with any other team with 14 points. If RCB's net run rate remains high then the team will be successful in entering the top 4. However, these equations are very complex. But the possibilities certainly exist.
