There is a proper muddle in the mid-table and as many as five teams are vying for the remaining two spots. They currently have 14 points in 12 matches and a win in any one of the two games secures the playoff berth. However, even if they fail to win the remaining matches, they can still sneak through provided other results go in their favour. They could get eliminated despite winning both their remaining matches, if SRH win both their matches too and Mumbai Indians get the better of Kolkata Knight Riders. But their poor net run rate means they will have to win by huge margins and expect other teams to suffer big defeats.
