The Bengaluru-based side will meet CSK at home in their last league game.

If results go their way, the RCB-CSK match could become a knockout.

When batting first, RCB must win by more than 18 runs to take their net run rate past CSK.

If CSK set a 201-run target, RCB must chase it down in 18.1 overs.

LSG, DC, and GT are also on the hunt to clinch a playoff spot.

The team losing points in one of their remaining games will benefit RCB.

The NRR will be considered if multiple teams finish with 14 points.

[{"selector":"#anim-460a7129-d215-4e69-9094-d47c475f02bd [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-34.179687404002955%, 0, 0) translate(-25%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0) translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"fill":"forwards"}]

If SRH lose their two league games, both CSK and RCB can qualify.
