Royal Challengers Bengaluru completed a dream comeback to finish in the Top 4 of the IPL 2024 points table on Saturday, May 18. At the start of this month, RCB were holding the 10th position in the standings. But they settled for the fourth position after an epic win against Chennai Super Kings last night.
Playing in front of their home fans at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, RCB batted brilliantly and posted a 218-run total on the board. Although RCB scored 218, they had to restrict CSK to 200 so that they could overtake their net run rate.
Rachin Ravindra's half-century kept Chennai in the hunt, but in the end, RCB restricted their rivals to 191/7 in their 20 overs. Yash Dayal was the hero for the home team. He conceded just seven runs in the last over to seal the deal for his side. Here are the updated standings after the RCB vs CSK match:

Courtesy of this result, CSK have slipped to the fifth position in the IPL 2024 points table. The defending champions' net run rate declined from +0.528 to +0.392. Meanwhile, RCB's net run rate went up from +0.387 to +0.459.
Can Sunrisers Hyderabad finish in the Top 2 of the IPL 2024 points table?
Sunrisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals are in the race to play the Qualifier 1 tonight. RR can make an entry into the Qualifier 1 match with a victory over the Kolkata Knight Riders later tonight in Guwahati.
However, if RR lose that game, SRH will have an opportunity to enter the Top 2. For that, SRH will have to first defeat the Punjab Kings in the afternoon match of the double-header today. It will be interesting to see which team plays against KKR in Qualifier 1.
