After nearly month and a half the IPL-5 enters the home stretch with prospects of exciting close finishes and bitter fight among top teams for a place in the play-offs. While two teams in the rear are out of the competition for sure two right in front, DD and KKR expect to make it comfortably for the POs with the remaining five teams fighting it out for the 3rd and 4th places. The way CSK crushed DD raises hopes for them but only just because RCB with one game extra to play appear to be in better place to make it to the last four along with MI. On the other hand going by the Saturday’s two games neither DD nor KKR who have been run away leaders so far can be termed favorites to win the title.Both CSK and MI are seen to be peaking at the right time and look formidable..While Dhoni's batters appear to be getting back their touch over and above Hilfanhaus strengthening their bowling, for MI Rohit Sharma;s 'classic' knock puts MI as one of the Top contenders.RCB also looks to be on a terrific resurgence with their bowling suddenly looking quite good! So, play offs and winning the Final are going to be tough for either DD or KKR with likes of CSK,MI or RCB coming in the reckoning. However the two top teams better chance in case smaller sides like RR or KXIP advance although the last two will have to play out of their skin to win all their remaining matches. All in all we can expect next two weeks of mouth watering T20 matches.

First let CSK reach last 4. Infact MSD was praying for KKR to beat MI today. But it did not happen. If that had happened then CSK would have had its road to Last 4 easy.
