What does it mean for MI?
Gaurav Sundararaman sums it up: MI are virtually out of the IPL. They need a lot of luck going their way if they have to make it to the playoffs. They have lost six out of six now. The maximum they can reach is 16 points. In a ten team IPL that could be what the fourth placed team may finish on. With six losses, MI's NRR also is the lowest. Unless we see a lot of lower ranked teams beat the higher ranked teams and a major crowd at 14 or 16 points, MI do not have a chance. For starters they need to win one game to get off the mark.
