Can Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) qualify for IPL 2024 Playoffs?

In their upcoming IPL 2024 matches, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), currently placed fifth in points table with 12 points, take on Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), Delhi Capitals (DC), and Mumbai Indians (MI).

LSG's path to qualifying for Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 playoffs now depends on their ability to secure wins in at least two of their remaining three league stage matches. A team generally needs at least 16 points to make it to IPL playoffs.

However, even if LSG manages to win two out of their three remaining games to get to the crucial 16-point mark, it won't guarantee them a playoff berth. LSG's qualification for IPL 2024 playoffs will be contingent upon the outcomes of matches involving other teams.

So for LSG to solidify their chances of making it to the final four, they must win all their remaining three matches to get to 18 points.

The most probable scenario to unfold is that Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) may win only two of their remaining three matches, resulting in a total of 16 points at the end of the league stage.

For LSG to enhance their chances of making it to IPL 2024 playoffs, they would need to win those two matches by big margins to improve their net run rate (NRR). This becomes crucial as NRR will be a decisive factor when multiple teams are tied up with 16 points at the end of the league stage.
