Current situation

Kolkata Knight Riders now have 6 points from 7 matches and are placed 7th on the table. But the good thing is that their run rate has not entered the negative zone and reads +0.160 at the moment. They need to keep the NRR in the positive space along with winning the matches consistently.

Can they qualify for the playoffs?

KKR have every chance to enter the IPL 2022 playoffs. Starting from the match against Gujarat Titans on Saturday (April 23), the KKR will have 7 more matches remaining in the IPL 2022. With 6 points, they need to reach at least 16 points to maintain the hopes of finding a place in the top 4. So, it means the KKR need to win at least 5 of the remaining 7 matches to keep their play-off hopes alive. To maintain a healthy net run rate they have to win those games with good margins.
