Damn. Did not expect CSK to lose in this manner. What in the world happens to them when MSD is out? They lost horribly against SRH too and now MI decimated them. This clearly shows that MSD is the binding force of the team.

DC and MI need 1 more win to qualify at this stage.

Ms Dhoni is the spinal cord of CSK and I was not surprised when CSK began to crumble, I knew his absence would hurt them bad. Well it’s simple Ms Dhoni plays with his emotions and his experience, no one in CSK can read the game like he does or motivate them as he’s able to do. I am expecting Delhi and Mumbai to qualify our attention now needs to shift on who’s going to qualify for the fourth spot.

Today's game of SRH against RR will aso decide who is going to be in top 4 and who is going to eliminate,I think SRH will play better cricket and keep their hope of entering into the playoffs since RR missing someone who can win the games for them.

I agree. I am confident that SRH will defeat RR, but they will need to keep winning if they wish to qualify. The same applies to Punjab.

On the other hand, RR needs to win this one if they wish to keep their chances alives though their chances seem slim at this point.

So there will be real battle between IPL teams for their next two matches so it will be like do or die so interesting to watch those games.My pick for the top 4 will be CSK,MI,SRH and DC what are your predictions guys.

My top 4 picks:

-SRH
-DC
-CSK
-MI

Delhi have improved in a big way under Shreyas and are performing brilliantly in this season which is why they will be the team to watch for me.

Same here and I am sure CSK will finish at top . Not sure about the spots of other three teams but it seems like MI SRH DC to me . DC has played really well throughout with Shreyas, the new captain but I am not sure if they can make it to finals though.

Right now CSK, MI and DC have almost secured their spot for the playoff. So the fight for the remaining one spot is between five teams: SRH, KXIP, RCB, RR and KKR. And right now it is virtually impossible to predict which one of these teams will secure the spot. I would say that a slight advantage is with SRH, as they have 4 matches remaining compared to 3 for the others.

CSK has already qualified. MI and DC need 1 more win each. KKR, RR and RCB need to win every match going forward which is why SRH and KXIP have the advantage here. The upcoming matches will basically be knock out games for every team.

SRH have started very well and are at 83/1 in 9.3 overs With this rate it seems they can cross 200 runs as Manish and Warner are in form and hitting the ball well.  RR has to win this match else nothing much left for them in the tournament then.

Rajisthan Royals could win today's match if they be able to stop a single man, David Warner. Rajisthan has a home ground and Rahane is in good form. Rashid khan is loosing his charm. Anyway, it would be a great match to watch. Rajisthan needs to make some changes in the playing 11.

107 after 13th overs for 2. Manish Pandey seems to be playing for a century. He is doing pretty well. SRH was badly needed a batsman which can replace any of Warnee and Bairstaw.

SRH are collapsing like dominoes once again. Their middle order is easily the worst aspect of their team. They literally lost around 5 wickets for 30+ runs which proves my point.

What in the world were the SRH management thinking selecting such players?

[Sithara007]

Once again, death over issues for SRH. They have lost wickets in a hurry and now they're at 137-6 with just 12 balls remaining. With two over remaining, they should try to get another 23 runs to set a target of 160. That will give them an outside chance of a victory. Both the opening bowlers bowled well for RR (Varun Aaron and Oshane Thomas).

I am not watching the match today. Just checked the scoreboard and seem like Bairstow is not playing. Warner found some run but looks like Pandey saved the innings.

With SRH this season, If Bairstow and Warner performs then they score good run. They always had middle over issue and death over too.

Not sure if they can defeat whatever runs they score. However I already picked SRH. So, we will see.

Any easy 200 score was always on cards after 10 overs of SRH batting and RR bowled so well that they contain them to only 160 runs. Also RR have started very well and are 80/1 in 10 overs and 81 require in last 10 overs. It will be a good contest to watch.

Sorry mate, you have lost once again. RR has won the match by 7 wickets. Samson and Livingstone played good innings and it made easier to win RR.
RR have to win the rest of the matches for qualifying the next round provided that SRH or KXIP will lose at least one of the match. Still RR will not be confirmed because of their negative NRR.

Looks like RR is still hanging on. I cannot believe that RR and RCB are still in the tournament at present. They might actually do something miraculous here. On the other hand, SRH has disappointed me once again. They need to improve drastically on all fronts if they wish to qualify from here on out.

Rashid Khan is the main impact player on SRH team but he didn't played the game like he did before and also he didn't made took much wickets.So I think it is going to be very hard for SRH to qualify from now since Opener Bairstow also left team for his World cup preparations.

RR has lower chances than SRH and KXIP. They have to win all the other matches along with looking at the lose of other matches.
CSK, MI, DC has almost confirmed the next round. SRH will be the 4th team,I guess or KXIP (lower chance though).

CSK is the only team officially qualified for play offs,in the next two matches we can clearly get an idea of who is going to stay and who will be out of the top four.DC vs RCB match will decide the fate of RCB to qualify for playoffs or not so will be a huge battle on today's match.

RCB has zero chance, IMO because they have played 11 matches and won 4 only while CSK, MI, DC has already won 7 matches. Even if RCB win all the match, their NRR will get them out from the tournament.
