To say that IPL 2023 has been an extremely open season so far would be an understatement. All 10 teams are still mathematically alive in the race for the four playoff berths.
With 16 matches left to play in the league stage of IPL 2023, there remain over 65,000 possible combinations of results. TOI looks at each of these possibilities to calculate the chances of individual teams making it to the playoffs. As things stand, one team is almost certain to make the play-offs, two others are strong favourites to do so and none of the others is as yet definitely out and any of them can in fact tie for top spot.
