A third team has now been knocked out of the race for the playoffs this season. Punjab Kings' 4 wicket loss vs Rajasthan Royals saw them join Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad as the third team to be eliminated.
So what does that do to the points table? It leaves 6 teams vying for 3 remaining playoff berths. While CSK and LSG are frontrunners to secure a top 4 berth, anything can happen in the final 4 matches left to play, with NRR likely to play a big role in deciding the fate of a few teams.
