The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are on top again, while Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) are trailing them both. What teams need to qualify for IPL 2026 playoffs?

Rishabh Pant, Axar Patel and Ajinka Rahane could lose their IPL captaincy after their respective teams had an awful campaign this year. LSG, DC and KKR might assign captaincy to new players after the season. These are reports actually.

A last-over finish in Raipur against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) has taken the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) closer to the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 Playoffs. The Gujarat Titans had leapfrogged RCB after defeating the Sunrisers Hyderabad on May 12, but the reigning champions have claimed the top spot again. Can RCB qualify for IPL 2026 Playoffs? The equation is as simple as it gets for RCB. They are on 16 points, and a win in the remaining two matches will most likely seal a playoff spot for them. However, even if they don’t win another game, a healthy NRR could still confirm the top four places for them.

Despite scoring 192 in the first innings, Kolkata could not wither Virat Kohli storm, and succumbed to their first defeat in five matches. And given the magnitude of this loss for KKR, this will have some serious implications on their IPL 2026 playoffs chances. One key factor in this encounter was, the absence of Varun Chakravarthy, who was not only picking wickets for them, but also was bowling economically, and formed a potent partnership with Sunil Narine. Nonetheless, the Ajinkya Rahane-led side still stays in 8th position in the IPL 2026 points table, with a 0.2% chance of qualifying. Can KKR still qualify for IPL 2026 playoffs? The answer is a big no. Although, mathematically they are still not out, and have three matches to go, but the chances are as slim as they get. They had to, had to win their remaining matches, which they could not. Now, not only they have t...
