Four teams, including CSK and RCB, will now fight for two playoff spots.

The upcoming clash between RCB and CSK will act as a decider.

The Bengaluru-based side must win the match to reach 14 points.

LSG and SRH can also finish with the same points.

Both teams losing at least one of their remaining games will benefit RCB.

RCB won't have to worry about the NRR if SRH lose two matches.

If LSG and SRH secure one win each, RCB must beat CSK by a big margin.

A win over RCB at Chinnaswamy will seal a playoff spot for CSK.

CSK can qualify even if RCB wins, provided the margin is narrow and LSG lose a match.
