Hyderabad or Rajasthan?

In fact, Sunrisers Hyderabad, Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals still have one match each left.

If Sunrisers and Rajasthan win then… 

Sunrisers Hyderabad has 15 points in 13 matches. Sunrisers Hyderabad’s last match is against Punjab Kings. If Hyderabad team defeats Punjab in this match, then it will have 17 points and will reach the second position, but if Rajasthan Royals team defeats Kolkata in its last match, then Sunrisers Hyderabad team will remain at the third position despite winning, because Rajasthan will have 18 points. In such a situation, Hyderabad will face RCB in the eliminator match.

If Hyderabad wins and Rajasthan loses then… 

There is also an aspect in this that if Hyderabad team wins in the last league and Rajasthan Royals have to face defeat against KKR, then Rajasthan team will play the eliminator match with Royal Challengers Bangalore, because Rajasthan will have 16 points and Hyderabad will have 17 points with victory. On the other hand, if Hyderabad loses and Rajasthan wins, then the eliminator match will be between SRH and RCB. Rajasthan Royals will face KKR in Qualifier-1 with 18 points.
