IPL 2026 Points Table Update: Punjab Kings kept their play-offs hopes alive as they defeated Lucknow Super Giants by 7 wickets. With this win, Punjab temporarily went up to the 4th position with 15 points but if Rajasthan Royals defeat Mumbai Indians on Sunday, they will leapfrog Punjab with 16 points and qualify for the play-offs.
In case Rajasthan lose, Punjab will hope that Delhi Capitals defeat Kolkata Knight Riders in the second match on Sunday or the game is close so that the Shreyas Iyer-led PBKS can qualify due to their superior net run rate.
Here’s what the IPL 2026 points table looks like after Punjab Kings’ win over Lucknow Super Giants.
