mumbai indians, royal challengers Bangalore, punjab Kings and gujarat Titans, all these four teams have confirmed their place in the playoffs. The battle to become the table topper is on between these four teams. Today mumbai indians will face punjab Kings, after which the team to become the table topper can be confirmed. Actually, only 2 matches are left in the league stage and it depends on these two matches that which team will finish at the top of the points table.

First of all, let's know the status of the points table. gujarat Titans have played all their 14 matches, which currently has 18 points. punjab Kings is in second place, which currently has 17 points and royal challengers Bangalore, sitting at number three, also has 17 points at present and it also has one match left. At the same time, the mumbai indians team, which will take on punjab Kings today, is in fourth place. Since MI's net run-rate is very good, it has a very good chance of being at the top of the table.

The biggest thorn in MI's path

mumbai indians are currently at the fourth position with 16 points. Since Mumbai's net run-rate is +1.292, if they win today's match, they will reach the top of the points table. To do this, they will have to overcome the tough challenge of punjab Kings. Punjab's team itself is in the race to become the table topper. punjab currently has 17 points after 8 wins in 13 matches and their net run-rate is +0.327.

mumbai can become the table topper only if they beat punjab Kings today. They will also have to hope that RCB does not win over lucknow Super Giants in their last league match. This will leave RCB with 17 points while MI will finish at the top of the table with 18 points.
