IPL Points Table 2024, Team Rankings: Sunrisers Hyderabad moved to the 2nd spot in the IPL Points table after they demolished Punjab Kings by 4 wickets.

Meanwhile, if RR lose or the match gets washed out, SRH will stay 2nd with 17 points and a greater run rate than RR.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru shook off a horror start to their IPL campaign with 6 straight wins in the business-end of the tournament to qualify for the playoffs as the 4th-placed team.
