With Virat Kohli’s Royal Challengers Bengaluru taking on MS Dhoni’s Chennai Super Kings taking each other on at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in the Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) on May 18, fans are waiting to see who will come out on top and book their spot for the IPL playoffs. However, what if both teams could get one playoff spot each at the end of the group stage?

Both RCB and CSK Through To IPL Playoffs?
There is a chance that both RCB and CSK can bring themselves into the knockout stages of the cash-rich league. But for that to happen, many things have to go in their favour in the upcoming matches of the league.
Firstly, SunRisers Hyderabad who are currently sitting on 4th position on the table with 14 points need to lose both of their upcoming matches against Gujarat Titans and Punjab Kings. Seeing how Punjab upset the Rajasthan Royals the other night, both GT and PBKS could beat SRH in the upcoming matches as well.
Secondly, RCB will have to beat Chennai Super Kings in Bengaluru but do it by a small margin which will keep CSK alive in the tournament. Chennai too have to win their other games to make sure they don’t experience any slip-ups in the process.
The scenario is bringing a lot of excitement to Indian cricketing fans who would want to see another knockout encounter between Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni this year.
SRH fans on the other hand won’t take a liking to this deduction and would love to see their team go through to the playoffs after what has been an exhilarating tournament for them so far.
