IPL 2024 Playoffs Schedule: After the end of 70 league stage matches, the IPL 2024 is all set for its playoffs stage now. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) qualified for the IPL 2024 playoffs.
KKR finished as the top-ranked team with 20 points in 14 games. Their last match against Rajasthan Royals (RR) was abandoned due to rain in Guwahati on Sunday, May 19. Rajasthan Royals were also forced to share a point and had to settle at third spot with 17 points.
In the day fixture (Match 69) on Sunday, Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) defeated Punjab Kings (PBKS) to pip RR for the second spot. RR needed a win to regain the spot and book a berth in the Qualifier 1 but rain marred their plan. The Sanju Samson-led side also finished at 17 points but SRH had a better Net Run Rate (NRR) than them.
Further, RCB on Saturday (May 18) defeated Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by 27 runs to become the fourth and final team to qualify for the IPL 2024 playoffs. They finished with 14 points - the same as CSK and Delhi Capitals (DC) - but a better NRR saw them book a place in the final four, and advance to the next round.
