IPL 2020: Ajit Agarkar picks MI, DC, KKR to qualify for playoffs

Dubai, Oct 13 (UNI) Former Indian cricketer Ajit Agarkar has picked Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders as three out of the four teams to qualify for the playoffs in the ongoing IPL 2020.
''It's such a close tournament, so many ups and downs, but clearly Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals look like the two best teams -- form-wise and personnel-wise. KKR, in my opinion, got a real bonus win against CSK. They are my third team," said Agarkar, on Star Sports' show Cricket Connected.
At present, MI and DC are on the top two spots in the points table, while KKR is placed at the fourth position.
The former pacer feels that the fourth team to enter the final four will be either Rajasthan Royals or SunRisers Hyderabad.
"The fourth team for me is between Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad. I had CSK at the start of the tournament, but at the moment, these two teams look slightly better than what CSK is playing," he said.
Meanwhile, former England spinner Graeme Swann feels SunRisers Hyderabad and Rajasthan Royals will make it to the top four, after the end of the league stage.
"I'm definitely going with Sunrisers Hyderabad cause Jonny Bairstow not only looks dapper with his ginger hair and the orange shirt, amazing, it shouldn't go, but it does, but he's also smashing it," said Swann.
"My fourth team is going more with my heart than my head, Rajasthan Royals, Tewatia hit 5 sixes off that over and I fell for the Rajasthan Royals. They've lost all three games, they cannot get any worse. Ben Stokes is coming back. They are going to qualify," he added.
