The performance of Mumbai Indians in IPL 2024 has not been anything special and the team is on the verge of being out of the playoffs. One defeat and all the hopes of Mumbai Indians will be dashed but if the team wins the remaining three matches then it can make it to the playoffs. Currently Rajasthan Royals is at first place with 8 wins and Kolkata Knight Riders is at second place with 7 wins.

Mumbai Indians have 6 points from 11 matches with three wins and their net run rate is also -0.356. At present Mumbai Indians is at the last position in the points table. In such a situation, the path to the playoffs is not easy for Mumbai.

The path to playoffs is difficult for Mumbai

Mumbai Indians should win all three of their matches by big margins and hope that Lucknow Supergiants, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Chennai Super Kings, Delhi Capitals, Punjab Kings, Gujarat Titans and Royal Challengers Bangalore do not win more than 6 matches. However, it is not all that simple. Lucknow and Hyderabad have won 6-6 matches and they still have 4-4 matches left. As soon as both the teams win their 7th match, Mumbai Indians team will be out of the playoffs.
