Chennai Super Kings are the defending champions.
Only top four teams of the group stage will get the automatic qualification for the playoffs, while the top two teams will play in the Qualifier 1, with the losing team to play one more game in the Qualifier 2 to reach the final. The teams that finish third and fourth will play in the Eliminator match with the winner advancing to the Qualifier 2 and the winners of Q 1 and Q 2 will play in the final on May 29.
