As a result, the side is reeling at the bottom-most spot with only 3 wins in 10 games and are fighting to finish in the top four. With only four league stage fixtures left for them, their chances of making it into the playoffs remain bleak, but they will look to push in all their games. While they will take on Chennai Super Kings on May 10 in Chennai, they will then host them in a reverse fixture, followed by a game against Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur before they return home for their final league fixture against Punjab Kings on May 23.

LSG’s IPL 2026 playoffs qualification scenario explained
The Rishabh Pant & Co, who are currently reeling at the 10th spot in the IPL 2026 points table, still have four games to go. With 6 points already under their belt with 3 wins, the maximum they can reach is 14 points. But if we speak mathematically, even a perfect record in the final four games could just prove insufficient for the Lucknow-based franchise.
