IPL 2022 Updated Points Table, Orange Cap and Purple Cap: Sunrisers Hyderabad remain in Playoff race, Umran Malik rises to 4th

Sunrisers Hyderabad snapped a five-match losing streak in the IPL 2022 with a narrow three-run win over bottom-placed Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Tuesday (May 17). The win keeps SRH’s slim hopes of qualifying for the IPL 2022 Playoffs alive, moving to 12 points from 13 matches but remained in 8th place on the Points Table.

SRH will play their final match against Punjab Kings, who also have 12 points, on Sunday (May 22) and will have to hope that Delhi Capitals or Royal Challengers Bangalore fail to win their final games to move to 16 points. The best that SRH can achieve at the moment is 14 points from 14 matches and need a massive boost to their NRR of -0.230 if they hope to pip both DC and RCB for a Playoffs berth.

Kolkata Knight Riders can also move to 14 points with a better NRR than SRH when they face Lucknow Super Giants in Match No. 66 of the IPL 2022 on Wednesday (May 18). Rohit Sharma’s MI, meanwhile, remain at the bottom of the table with their 10th loss in 13 matches.
