It's not just almost because it's 100%. SRH is the third team to officially exit the season after CSK and RR as expected. Many predicted MI would follow them in the initial stage, but they reversed their form excellently.
7 remaining teams are fighting for the top 4 spots now and it looks like RCB, MI, Punjab and GT will most probably end up claiming them. Let's see what happens.
MI, RCB, GT These three teams will ensure an 80% confirmed playoff spot, but it is not certain which of the four and five teams will qualify. If RCB wins today's match, they will move to the top of the points table. Delhi Capitals initially surprised everyone by winning their first four matches, but later on, Delhi Capitals could not maintain their performance. If Delhi Capitals continue to lose like they are losing now, they will not be able to secure the playoffs.
