The Gujarat Titans (GT) registered a much-needed win over the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to keep their chances of getting into the playoffs alive. GT now need to build on this win and aim to climb up as much as they can. The Shubman Gill-led side is currently positioned eighth on the points table, with five wins and seven losses.
How Gujarat Titans can qualify for the IPL 2024 Playoffs?
It is still almost impossible for GT to qualify for IPL 2024 playoffs. Despite their big win vs CSK, they still have a poor net run rate of -1.063. As the runners-up of IPL 2023, they desperately need to win all upcoming matches. They can reach to a maximum of 14 points. Due to this, winning the remaining games might not be enough.
There are already 3 teams with 14 or more points. Moreover, three sides in CSK, DC and LSG are tied with 12 points. RCB could also end up on 14 points. GT’s negative net run rate may pose a challenge, but they are committed to turning their fortunes around. GT are heavily dependent on other teams to drop points in order to qualify for IPL 2024 playoffs.
Their upcoming matches against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will be crucial.
