Mumbai: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have all but sealed their place in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2018 playoffs alongside Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) with a win against Kane Williamson-led unit in Pune on Sunday.

Rajasthan Royals’ (RR) win over Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Wankhede Stadium last night means there’s a mid-table scramble with as many as five teams – Kings XI Punjab (KXIP), Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), MI, RR and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) are in with a chance to grab the two spots in the playoffs. With nine games still to go in the league stage, we are heading for an interesting race for a road to playoffs.
