The Rajasthan Royals have a few issues to resolve before the playoffs. Just before the most important part of the competition, the team that was seemingly unbeatable only a few weeks before experienced a significant decline in performance. The team captained by Sanju Samson takes on PBKS following three straight defeats. The Delhi Capitals have insured RR's qualifying, but their top-two finish, which was unavoidable a week ago, is not certain. They must go back to their winning ways to achieve that. If they lose their remaining two matches, CSK or SRH may prevent them from finishing in the top two. On the other hand, PBKS has already been eliminated from the tournament and will compete for pride.
