Despite winning their final game, they occupied the wooden spoon spot due to a lack of consistency in both the batting and bowling departments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the IPL 2026 Points Table, the five time champions will be desperate to reclaim their glory. Under the likely mentorship of MS Dhoni, the squad will focus on a complete tactical overhaul to move from the bottom of the rankings back into the top four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mumbai_Indians\"><\/span>Mumbai Indians<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">MI had a strong resurgence in the previous edition, finishing 4th in the league stage. They successfully defeated the Gujarat Titans in the Eliminator but saw their journey end in Qualifier 2 after a loss to the Punjab Kings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heading into IPL 19, the Hardik Pandya led side will aim to improve their group stage consistency. Their objective is to secure a top two finish on the points table to earn the double chance advantage in the playoffs and push for their sixth title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kolkata_Knight_Riders\"><\/span>Kolkata Knight Riders<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">KKR struggled as defending champions last year, finishing in 8th place with only five wins from 14 matches. They were the fourth team to be eliminated from playoff contention after a season plagued by injuries and form issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Also Check:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/leaguesschedule.com\/ipl\/2026\/kkr-squad\/\">KKR IPL 2026 Squad<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2026, KKR will look to move up the standings under the leadership of Ajinkya Rahane. They need to find a winning momentum early in the season to avoid a mid table scramble and secure their spot among the top contenders once again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Royal_Challengers_Bengaluru\"><\/span>Royal Challengers Bengaluru<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RCB made history in 2025 by finishing 2nd in the league stage and eventually winning their maiden IPL title. Under Rajat Patidar captaincy, they defeated Punjab Kings in a thrilling final to end their 18 year wait for the trophy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the current champions, RCB will aim to maintain their high ranking status on the IPL 2026 Points Table. Their primary goal is to prove their 2025 success wasn&#8217;t a fluke by dominating the group stages and defending their crown successfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rajasthan_Royals\"><\/span>Rajasthan Royals<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">RR had a disappointing 2025 campaign, finishing in 9th place on the table. Despite having a strong roster on paper, the team suffered five consecutive losses during the mid season, which effectively ended their playoff hopes early.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the 2026 season, the Royals will focus on stabilizing their performance across all 14 matches. They aim to avoid the erratic dips in form that saw them finish near the bottom and will strive to return to the top half of the standings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sunrisers_Hyderabad\"><\/span>Sunrisers Hyderabad<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SRH was the most explosive team of 2025, breaking multiple scoring records but ultimately finishing in 6th place. Despite scoring over 270 twice, their bowling inconsistencies prevented them from breaking into the top four.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Orange Army will aim to balance their record breaking batting with a more disciplined bowling attack in 2026. Their mission is to convert high scores into points on the table and secure a long-awaited playoff berth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delhi_Capitals\"><\/span>Delhi Capitals<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DC came agonizingly close to the playoffs last year, finishing in 5th place with seven wins. They were the last team to be eliminated in the league stage after a high-stakes loss to the Mumbai Indians in their final group game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the upcoming season, DC will focus on winning the crunch moments to bridge the gap between 5th and 4th place. Under Axar Patel leadership, the team aims to be a permanent fixture in the top tier of the IPL 2026 Points Table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Punjab_Kings\"><\/span>Punjab Kings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PBKS were the standout performers of the 2025 league stage, finishing in 1st place with 19 points. However, they faced heartbreak in the final, losing to RCB by a narrow margin and finishing as the runners-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For IPL 19, PBKS will look to maintain their dominant league stage form. After missing out on the title so closely, their focus is to once again secure a top two finish and finally get their hands on the championship trophy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lucknow_Super_Giants\"><\/span>Lucknow Super Giants<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">LSG finished the 2025 season in 7th place, marking their second consecutive year without a playoff appearance. They managed six wins but struggled to keep up with the net run rate of the top tier teams in Group B.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2026, with Rishabh Pant taking over as captain, LSG will aim for a fresh start. The team needs to secure points more consistently to break back into the top four and shed their image as a mid-table franchise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gujarat_Titans\"><\/span>Gujarat Titans<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GT maintained their status as a top side in 2025, finishing 3rd in the league stage. However, their campaign ended abruptly in the Eliminator match against Mumbai Indians, preventing them from reaching the final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the IPL 2026 Points Table, the Titans will aim for a top two finish to ensure they have the safety net of Qualifier 1. Their focus remains on their disciplined bowling unit to guide them back to a championship final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQ&#8217;s<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1769863954079\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How many points are awarded for a win in IPL 2026?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Every team receives 2 points for a win, while no points are awarded for a loss in the group stage.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1769863957265\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What happens if a match is washed out or ends in a tie?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">In case of a wash out or a tie where a Super Over is not possible, both teams are awarded 1 point each.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1769863958114\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How many teams qualify for the IPL 2026 playoffs?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The top four teams on the points table at the end of the league stage will qualify for the playoffs.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1769863959149\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Who won the IPL title in the previous season?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">RCB won the 2025 title by defeating Punjab Kings in the final.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1769863959955\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is the date of the first match of IPL 2026?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The first match of the 2026 season is scheduled for March 26 between KKR and RCB.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The IPL 2026 Points Table will officially begin its countdown on March 26, 2026, as the defending champions RCB take on KKR.
