For this intriguing scenario to unfold, a specific sequence of outcomes must occur in the upcoming matches. Firstly, RCB needs to emerge victorious in their encounters against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Gujarat Titans (GT), two formidable opponents in their own right. These matches will test RCB’s mettle and determination as they aim to secure crucial victories to bolster their chances of making it to the playoffs.
In a parallel development, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) must prevail over the Delhi Capitals (DC) in their upcoming clash.
