Mumbai Indians
MI are the only side so far to have qualified. They are on 18 points from 13 matches. Their last league game is against KKR today (May 13). If they win they will remain as No. 1. However, a loss could come down to net run rate and they could be pushed to No. 2. Win or lose they are assured of top 2 spots, unless a huge defeat and other result (Pune Vs Punjab) worsen their net run rate and they could come down to No. 3. They will play Qualifier 1 (May 16) at home - Wankhede Stadium.
Kolkata Knight Riders

Rising Pune Supergiant
RPS have a poor net run rate when compared to the other 4 teams which are in race for qualification. They face Punjab tomorrow (May 14). Simple equation for them is to win and make the cut.

If SRH win today (May 13), RPS have to win on Sunday.
