These calculations are really good. But ideally I feel Hyderabad really doesn't deserve to go the semifinals... They lost too many close matches.. They could have defeated Delhi but lost 7 wkts in 17 runs. They almost lost to KKR. They lost a winning match agst Kings XI twice. Bangalore deserves to go the semifinals along with Kings XI

In the above projection, Rajastan's loss/tie-break with Kolkata are identical. So, the probability to qualify for the semi-final is:

I think you have to work out your cases. You wont have bangalore and hyderabad both in the game. Only one of them will proceed ahead.

Abhinav,
Bangalore & Hyderabad can enter together to the semi-final in only 2 cases below:
Rajastan loses/tie with Kolkata 1) and Chennai wins & Hyderabad wins - Chennai 17, Hyderabad 16, Bangalore 14 (out Punjab 14, Rajastan 13) 2) and Chennai wins & Hyderabad loses - Chennai 17, Bangalore 16, Hyderabad 14 (out Punjab 14, Rajastan 13
Case# 1 - Hyderabad will have 16 points and Bangalore 14. Since Bangalore has high runrate than Punjab "at the momemnt", Bangalore will go to the semi-final. Similar work out in case# 2 too.

As par the point table analysis, rajasthan can qualify only when they win against kkr and chennai also wins, otherwise no hope for rajasthan
