Royal Challengers keeps the playoff hope alive with the win against Gujarat Titans by 8 wickets and 8 balls left. In today's match RCB players contributed good, and it was possible to see their natural game than playing under pressure. However the match of Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians result is gonna decide who's gonna get into playoff, because RR have got better run rate than Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Outstanding performance from the players of Royal Challengers Bangalore. They have played so well and managed to win against Gujrat Titans. They have chance to get into playoff but DC has also chance here. NRR of DC is good compare to RCB. I think RR is in the safe position till now to qualify for playoff.

Outstanding performance from Royal Challengers Bangalore. Kohli played a great innings. On the other side as usual Hardik Pandya took the responsibility which helped the team reach 168 runs losing 5 wickets. It looks like Gujarat Titans is facing some difficulty when batting first and plays with much confidence while chasing targets.

What a game from Lucknow Super Giants and Kolkata Knight Riders. LSG scored 210 runs without losing a wicket. KKR played marvelous innings, but the middle order game from Andre Russell made mistake increasing the required run rate. Finally Rinku played the best and turned the game towards them. It was bad luck for KKR, because Rinku lost the wicket to the bowling of Stonis and caught by Lewis which is an unexpected one. Losing after a hard fight on a small margin is really sad.

No one expected such close game today. I thought Kolkata will loss the match by at least 20 runs. Lucknow had set a big target. de Kock has played a magnificent innings for LSG. Kolkata is eliminated now. Lewis deserve the credit for this victory of Lucknow. He took a great catch of Rinku Singh in the last over. KKR would have won the match if he missed that difficult catch.

Absolutely amazing match between KKR and LSG. I thought also that KKR would lose the match against LSG because total run was high to chase. But it was so close to win the natch for KKR. Both teams played very well. de Kock you're beauty, A great innings from de Kock.

Very beautiful and unexpected win by KKR - never had imagined that they will chase the run this beautifully. The target given by LSG was good but on the other side KKR were in high moral today and they snatched the match form LSG. Great match - great victory~

Now there is only one match remaining in the group phase, that will have an impact on deciding who will progress to the next round. Gujarat, Lucknow and Rajasthan have secured their qualification spot. Now it is a fight between RCB and DC for the final slot. Tomorrow there is a match between Mumbai and Delhi Capitals, and in case the latter manages to win this match they will proceed to the playoffs. If Mumbai wins, then it will be RCB who will figure as the 4th team that qualifies to the next round. Today's match (RR vs CSK) is more or less irrelevant.

As RCB are still in the race, there is a reasonable chance of reaching the next round. They now need the Mumbai Indians to beat the Delhi Capitals, due to their negative Net Run Rate. DC will advance to the play-offs if they win, otherwise they will be eliminated. It's that simple, unless something miraculous happens.

Why did GT choose to bat first after winning the toss? Sunil Gavaskar did say that it was a bad idea. Early on GT was struggling to even hit the ball but Hardik Pandya's agressive 62 runs let them to a respectable score of 168. I never expected RCB to chase that target but Kohli's impressive knock of 73 helped RCB to win the match. I hope he has regain his lost form this time. With this win RCB are still in contention for the playoffs.

RCB win over GT took them to the 4th place on the points table with 16 points with NRR -0.253 and have hopes for the playoffs alive after this victory. Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis presented the team with the perfect start.
Last but not the least, Glenn Maxwell with 5 fours and 2 sixes took the team over the finishing line and help RCB win the match with 8 wickets in hand and 10 balls in spare.

I wouldn’t have lost sleep if RCB had crashed out of the playoffs, but seeing them play so well yesterday now I want them to qualify and continue performing like they did yesterday. Furthermore I hope that you’ll are right and this knock helps Kohli bounce back, but if he continues to fail post this knock then he should really take a break from the game.

I think Virat Kohli is going to try his hardest to improve his performance because I see this IPL as the only chance of him being in the regular Indian squad in the upcoming World Cup. If he plays well, it will have his confidence and he might also be proved to be e playing very well in the world cup also. Now the question is how RCB is going to play from now on. Somehow I cannot still trust them because I believe GT  did not take this match too seriously.  because they have already qualified for the next stage.


Good Luck

Good to see something coming from bat of kohli after ages, till now only words are coming out of his mouth. AFAIK,  there is yet no confirmation of who along with GT or LSK will qualify for the next round. From number 3 to number 7 all teams have chances of making to next round.

Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals

This match is going to be an interesting one. I don't think Chennai Super Kings are going to achieve anything even if they win because it doesn't matter at this point. They are already out of the tournament.
But, for Rajasthan Royals, a win is going to be very helpful because winning this match is going to confirm their advance to the next stage of the competition. So, I expect a win for the Rajasthan Royals.

Kohli has struggled for runs this IPL, scoring 200+ runs at an average of 19.67 and only scoring 50 runs once. He was Player of the Match in the RCB vs GT match and finished with a superb 73 for 54. Finally, he contributed to the team.

Nothing important for CSK in this match they are already out. RR need to win this match to secure there position. So far CSK are doing good and Moeen Ali is lethal at the moment, scored 69 runs of 30 match. Someone from csk need to join moeen Ali so that they can score around 160.

If Kohli stops behaving like a monkey on the field and concentrates on his captaincy, then there is a good chance that RCB will enter playoffs this time. At this point, their entry is not yet guaranteed. On field theatrics and nepotism are two things that Kohli can't avoid. Maybe he should learn a lesson or two from Sanju Samson, who has led his side calmly so far. Ever since the IPL started in 2008, RCB has failed to win the trophy. Maybe it is time to experiment someone else with the captaincy. Someone who would give importance to actual game than on field drama.

Criticising any player for their rash behaviour is completely fine and should be encouraged but in doing so we should be balanced and close to realities. How come we forget that Kohli already stepped down from the RCB's captaincy and Faf is leading them in this season.

Kohli is no more captain of Indian team nor RCB. RCB is now lead by Faf du Plessis, kohli is to RCB as Ishan kishan is to MI. Captaincy is long gone story for Kohli, he should now focus on his batting to secure his place in team. I m sure next time IPL franchise will think twice before picking kohli.

Chennai has given a target of only 151 runs. But I guess they will collect at least 160 more. They collected only 3 runs in the first two overs. On the other hand, they have collected only 33 runs in the last 5 overs. Except for Moeen Ali, the performance of any other batsman was not good. He has scored 93 runs from 57 balls. However, I don't think it is possible to win against a team like Rajasthan with a target of 151 runs.

[Mahdirakib]

But, for Rajasthan Royals, a win is going to be very helpful because winning this match is going to confirm their advance to the next stage of the competition. So, I expect a win for the Rajasthan Royals.

Rajasthan will have some advantages if they win the match today. Firstly, they will ensure their position for the playoffs. Secondly, Rajasthan will get the 2nd rank in the leaderboard. They will have double chance to qualify for the final if they win today. Because, the top two teams play the first playoff match. The winning team directly enter in the final, and the losing team get another chance to play with the second playoff match winner. Rajasthan has already collected 47 runs from 5 overs. Perhaps, they are trying to win the match as early as possible.

Rajasthan Royals scored 37 runs in 4 overs. Rajasthan needs 114 runs from 96 balls to win. Experienced enough of a batsman from Rajasthan. It is very difficult to win against Rajasthan with a target of only 151 runs. In this match, I bet on the victory of Rajasthan. It is hoped that Rajasthan will easily defeat Chennai today.

Rajasthan Royals scored 75 runs in 11 overs. To win they have to collect 76 runs in 9 overs. They have lost only two wickets though. They have collected only 8 runs in the last 3 overs. This is an easy match for Rajasthan but their player makes it more difficult. Collecting 76 runs off 54 balls will be more difficult if Rajasthan loses two more wickets
