Royal Challengers Bangalore are in a similarly secure position, also holding a 99% playoff qualification probability. Their chances of finishing in the top two stand at 83.4%, keeping them in contention for a favorable playoff route.

Sunrisers Hyderabad are strongly placed as well, with an 82.8% chance of reaching the playoffs. Their top-two probability is 38.9%, and a single additional win would push them very close to confirmation.

Punjab Kings are more uncertain, with a 50.3% chance of making the top four and just 9.8% odds of finishing in the top two, leaving them in a tight mid-table battle.

Rajasthan Royals have improved their position after CSK’s loss, now sitting at a 60.4% playoff chance and a 19.9% chance of finishing in the top two.

Chennai Super Kings have seen their hopes weaken significantly, with playoff qualification down to 17% and top-two chances at 8%.

At the lower end, Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Capitals are nearly out of contention for the top two and face very slim playoff probabilities - 5.1% for KKR and 6.1% for DC.

With just 11 matches left in the league stage, the playoff picture is becoming increasingly defined, but several mid-table teams still have room to shift the final standings.
