Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), one of the most popular teams in the Indian Premier League (IPL), is likely to find itself in a very tight position after Delhi Capital’s (DC) beat Gujarat Titans by four runs in a thrilling match in Delhi. RCB are in the last position of the points table, having just 2 points from eight matches with a negative run rate of 1.046. The team have won only one match and lost all other seven matches despite having star players like Virat Kohli and Dinesh Karthik. None of its batters have shown any kind of consistency with the bat. Faf du Plessis, Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green all have been a flop show so far. With only 2 points from eight matches, their chances of securing a playoff are bleak. However, even the impossible becomes possible when players like Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell, Cameron Green and Dinesh Karthik still have six matches to play.
How can RCB qualify for playoffs?
RCB have just 2 points with a terrible NRR of -1.046, the team need to win all of its remaining matches to make a slough to the final four. RCB’s clash with Sunrisers Hyderabad on Thursday at Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Hyderabad holds significant importance. A loss to Sunrisers Hyderabad today will put a full stop on their qualification chances.
