After a vital victory in their last match in IPL 2022, the spirits of the Delhi Capitals are high. Delhi had defeated Rajasthan Royals by eight wickets in their previous game. After this win, Delhi’s hopes of playing in the playoffs have strengthened. Delhi’s team is currently in fifth place in the IPL points table after registering six wins out of 12. They need to win the remaining two matches to reach the playoffs. Even if she loses a couple of games here, her chances of playing in the playoffs will remain. However, then he will have to depend on the results of other matches as well.
What is the equation for the Delhi Capitals’ victory?
Delhi won both its remaining matches, or at least one game must be won.
RCB lose both their remaining matches to Punjab Kings and Gujarat Titans. The number of games won by RCB will also be seen in such a situation, and the run rate will be less than Delhi.
KKR won their next match against SRH and lost to Lucknow. Even if KKR wins from Lucknow, the total victory of KKR will be seven only. The bus run rate should be less than Delhi.
SRH lose their remaining three matches to Punjab, Kolkata and Mumbai. Even if SRH wins from Kolkata and Mumbai, its total win will remain seven only. Even then, based on the net run rate of Delhi, there will be scope for reaching the playoffs.
Rajasthan should also lose both their remaining matches. That is, the team of Rajasthan loses to Lucknow and Chennai. In such a situation, Rajasthan will also be limited to 7 wins, and the playoff team will be decided based on the net run rate.
Punjab Kings should win their next match against Bangalore and Hyderabad and lose the game against Delhi. In such a situation, Punjab’s victory will remain seven, and there will be chances of Delhi reaching the playoffs based on net runs.
If the equations mentioned above are made, Delhi’s team can reach the playoff even after losing one match. In such a situation, the place of Gujarat, Lucknow and Delhi will be confirmed in the playoffs. The fourth team in the playoffs will be decided based on the net run rate.
