If RR beat MI, then it doesn’t matter what KKR do against DC, they are out of the race for the playoffs. If MI win, though, KKR have only an outside chance to go through. They need a dominant win over DC to topple Punjab Kings from fourth spot. Technically, DC also have a chance at making it to the playoffs but their margin of victory has to be so absurdly huge for that it is impossible for them to make it for all practical means and purposes.
