Leader Online Desk: The four teams that will make it to the IPL 2024 playoffs have been announced. Royal Challengers Bangalore have qualified for the playoffs after Kolkata Knight Riders, Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad. Along with this, a history has been created in the IPL, which you will not believe. This is the first time in the IPL that none of the top 4 teams from last season have made it to the playoffs. This may be hard for anyone to believe.
Chennai Super Kings, Gujarat Titans, Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians qualified for the playoffs in the IPL 2023 season, but these teams failed to reach the playoffs this season. This time KKR, RR, SRH and RCB have entered the playoffs. Thus, none of the teams that qualified for the playoffs last season are in the top 4 this year.
However, looking at the teams that have made it to the playoffs this season, one thing is clear that there is very little chance of a new champion this time around. RCB's team can be an exception in this. If this team has good luck, it can become the new champion of IPL. But if Kolkata, Rajasthan or Hyderabad win the title, there won't be a new champion this season as these teams have won the title at least once each. RR has won the IPL title in 2008, KKR in 2012 and 2014 and SRH in 2016.
