Which team will go to the playoffs first?

According to the matches played so far, Kolkata and Rajasthan teams have played 11 matches and won 8 matches to confirm the play-off round. Next up is Hyderabad, who are looking to secure a play-off spot.
Next to that, teams from Chennai, Delhi, Lucknow and Bangalore are in the process of getting a chance for the next round. Thus, the Chennai team will get a chance in the next round only if they win against the next strong Rajasthan team and the Bangalore team who are trying to go to the playoffs on the basis of maximum run rate.
