Mumbai Indians (MI) IPL 2024 playoffs qualification scenario: Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians (MI), the five-time champions, continue to occupy the bottom 9th position in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Points Table, following their most recent loss to KL Rahul's Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 on Tuesday (April 30).

Can Mumbai Indians (MI) qualify for Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Playoffs? 

With a Net Run Rate (NRR) of -0.261 and only 6 points to their name, Mumbai Indians (MI) face a near impossible task to secure a spot in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 playoffs. 

Given MI's extremely poor statistics and current standing (9th) in IPL 2024 points table, their path to Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 playoffs appears to be nearing an inevitable "dead-end".

With four matches left in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, Mumbai Indians' chances of securing a playoff berth seem nearly impossible. Even if they win all four remaining matches, they would only accumulate 14 points. Since the IPL transitioned to a 10-team format in 2022, teams typically need at least 16 points to qualify for IPL 2024 Playoffs.

Even if MI manages to win all their remaining four games, their fate will depend on the outcomes of matches involving other teams, and they would need favorable results across the board to have any hope of making it to IPL 2024 Playoffs. 

Overall, the odds are stacked against Mumbai Indians, and it appears their race to IPL 2024 playoffs is all but over.
