How can kkr Qualify for IPL 2025 Playoffs?
Kkr’s hopes of becoming the third team to defend their title have taken a major blow as the rahane-lege side faces a tough battle to seal qualification. With six matches remain in the League stage for them, the kolkata-based outfit cannot afford to lose more than one match.
In order to get to the elusive mark of 16 points, which is considered safe for qualification, kkr need to win at least five of their remaining six games.
While teams in the past have qualified with 14 points, it has died just on the 10-team (RCB in 2024). This situation will leave them dependent on other results and the net run rate (NRR) for Qualification.
