The five-time Mumbai Indians champion barely left the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 playoffs for the second year in a row. Champion Rohit Sharma should still score after losing the first eight games of the season.

The MI will have to win all of their remaining six games in the IPL 2022 with a big lead if they want to have a free chance to qualify for the Playoffs. They have NRR -1, which makes the situation more difficult for former champions.

If the current top 5 teams score 14 points, it will not be possible to qualify for the MI, as the best they can get now is a maximum of 12 points.

Remaining MI matches against: Rajasthan Royals, Gujarat Titans, Kolkata Knight Riders, Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals.

The new captain, Ravindra Jadeja, failed to follow MS Dhoni's legacy, although the former captain last week helped lead to an impossible victory against the Mumbai Indians. Like Indian Mumbai, CSK must win all six of its matches.

CSK can also qualify by winning five of the six matches, but they must hope for another comparison that is advantageous. Their remaining matches against: SRH, Royal Challengers Bangalore, DC, MI, GT and RR.
