David Warner's men need a win at any cost to qualify for  Dream11 IPL 2020 playoffs. A NRR of 0.555 means that margin of victory won't be an issue. However, if y lose against Mumbai in final league game on Tuesday, y will be eliminated from tournament and it will clearly n be Mumbai, Bangalore, Delhi and Kolkata in playoffs.

Despite ir win against Rajasthan on Sunday, Eoin Morgan's team's fate depends a lot of or teams' results, making Kolkata least favourite amongst four teams mentioned, to qualify for playoffs. Men in Purple will hope that loser of  Delhi vs Bangalore live match loses by a huge margin, so that Kolkata get ahe on NRR. If that doesn't happen, n Kolkata need Hyderab to lose against Mumbai and preferably again, by a big margin.
