IPL 2018: How Mumbai Indians, RCB and Rajasthan can qualify for the Playoffs with just 12 Points

#3 Mumbai Indians

Mumbai Indians began this year's IPL in their characteristic fashion, losing 5 of their first 6 games. They made a brilliant return in the second half of the tournament and have performed brilliantly to be in the reckoning.

Mumbai Indians has the best net run rate in the league, even higher than Sunrisers Hyderabad, and hence that wouldn't be a cause of concern for the side. Mumbai can qualify for the playoffs with just one win in their next two games if 4 of the 7 games go as they want.

Scenario for Mumbai Indians to qualify with just 12 points

Match 50: MI defeat KXIP

Match 51: SRH defeat RCB

Match 53: RCB defeat RR by a small margin

Match 55: Delhi defeat MI

Match 56: CSK defeat KXIP
