MI currently are placed seventh on the points table. They only have got to 10 points as of now and need to get to 14 points if they are to make it to the playoffs. The Mumbai Indians qualification firstly depends on them winning their remaining two matches.
Earlier, they had a really difficult competition from Kolkata Knight Riders and their negative run rate was beginning to haunt them. With the loss for KKR against PBKS yesterday, Mumbai Indians cannot afford to lose another game as not only can they not recover in time with their poor net run rate, but they then can’t even get to 14 points.
Mumbai Indians qualification depends on the fact that they not only they win the other two games very comprehensively but also win them by a big margin. Mumbai Indian’s net run rate is the one of the lowest in the season and only SRH are behind them. They will be hoping that KKR loses at least one of their remaining fixtured which will make it a little easier for the Rohit Sharma’s men.
