Ten teams started the IPL 2022 group stages, each in search of a place in Sunday's TATA IPL final in Ahmedabad. Just four remain: debutantes Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans, plus established sides Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers. Five-time IPL champions Mumbai Indians failed to make the playoffs this year.
Qualifier 1 see the Gujarat Titans battle it out with Rajasthan Royals. Then it's the Eliminator – 3rd place vs 4th place. New boys Lucknow Super Giants, captained by India's KL Rahul, are heavily fancied to progress when they face Faf du Plessis' Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Last year, Chennai Super Kings were crowned Indian Premier League champions for the fourth time after beating Kolkata Knight Riders by 27 runs. Competition has proved stiffer this year, as the world's greatest players flock to the richest league in cricket.
