Royal Challengers Bangalore have become the third team this year to qualify for the playoffs. RCB confirmed their qualification with a hard fought victory over Punjab Kings whose chances to qualify for playoffs have become very slim now. Punjab will need the other results to go their way to qualify. Kolkata Knight Riders have strengthened their position and are the frontrunners to become the last team to qualify. Their strong NRR works in their favour and that could help them qualify for playoffs.
