In the current season of the Indian Premier League (IPL), Chennai Super Kings has not performed as per expectations. This season has been nothing less than a nightmare for Mahi’s team. After the mega auction, this team changed a lot and after Deepak Chahar’s exit from the entire tournament, this team got a big setback and that shock is yet to be compensated.
Thala’s team can reach such playoffs in this way
Initially, Jadeja captained CSK and mid-season Mahi became the captain again. However, the successive defeats that CSK suffered under the captaincy of Jadeja, have not been able to restore CSK’s position in the points table so far. So far out of their 10 matches, CSK has won only three matches. Now the fans are hoping that Dhoni will do some miracle again in the current season and take this team to the playoffs.
Some fans believe that CSK’s team will miss the playoffs. But if you are also thinking like this then you can be proved wrong as the CSK team can still reach 14 points provided they win their upcoming four matches. Apart from this, MS Dhoni’s team will also have to depend on the results of the rest of the teams. However, one thing is certain CSK will be able to reach the fourth position only if they win their last four matches and they will also have to look at the net run rate during this period. If you also want to know how the CSK team can still qualify for the playoffs, then we help you. So let’s understand the equations given below and if this happens then the CSK team can still decide the way to the playoff.
First requirement – CSK will have to win all their remaining four matches against Delhi, Mumbai, Gujarat and Rajasthan.
The second requirement- In the table below are given the results which will decide the fate of CSK. If the results of the following matches come according to CSK, then believe me Dhoni’s team can qualify for the playoffs.
If the results of all matches go as per the table above, then at the end of the league stage either Chennai, Hyderabad or Punjab Kings will reach 14 points and have the better net runs. The rated team will make it to the playoffs.
