NEW DELHI: The Indian Premier League 2026 points table after Match 27 reflects a tightly contested season. Punjab Kings lead with 9 points from five games, remaining unbeaten.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Rajasthan Royals follow closely on 8 points each. Sunrisers Hyderabad have surged into fourth with 6 points, joining Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans in a mid-table cluster.
Meanwhile, Chennai Super Kings languish in seventh with just 4 points, and Kolkata Knight Riders remain winless at the bottom.
In the match at Hyderabad, Sunrisers Hyderabad edged Chennai Super Kings by 10 runs in a high-scoring encounter.
Powered by explosive knocks from Abhishek Sharma (59 off 22) and Heinrich Klaasen (59 off 39), SRH posted a formidable 194/9. Their aggressive start, especially during the powerplay, set the tone despite regular wickets later.
CSK’s chase began briskly, with contributions from Ayush Mhatre and Matthew Short keeping them in contention. However, frequent wickets stalled momentum.
Eshan Malinga starred with three key wickets, while Nitish Kumar Reddy chipped in with two.
Despite a late push from lower-order batters, CSK fell short at 184/8. SRH’s bowlers held their nerve in the death overs, sealing a crucial win that lifted them into the top four and further dented CSK’s campaign.
