IPL 2018: What can each team do in the last week of league stage?

Royal Challengers Bangalore

Virat Kohli's RCB still has a chance to make it to playoffs

After an abysmal last season, the Virat Kohli-led side would have wanted to change the things this year but they haven't been able to achieve that successfully. With 8 points from eleven games, they are still in the tournament thanks to the mid-table tussle between five teams for the remaining two spots in playoffs.

RCB will have to win the last three matches and hope that other results will work in their favour. If they want to give themselves a good chance to make it to the playoffs, they'll need big wins as their net run rate has already taken a hit due their performances so far.

They will be facing table-toppers Sunrisers Hyderabad, Kings XI Punjab and Rajasthan Royals in their last three games.

Points: 8 from 11 games
