IPL 2026 Points Table After Punjab Kings Won a High-Scoring Thriller Against Chennai Super Kings

by K D Mishra

As of 4th April 2026, the IPL points table is highly exciting, especially after the first few matches played. The Punjab Kings (PBKS) occupy the top position after winning their two matches. They recently registered victory by making a target of 210 runs against the Chennai Super Kings.

The Rajasthan Royals and Royal Challengers Bengaluru also had a good start. Both teams registered victory in their first match and are occupying higher positions due to a high Net Run Rate.

However, other strong teams such as Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders seem to be having difficulties. Both teams registered loss in their first two games and thus, do not have any points. The CSK team also lost its game at their home. Sunrisers Hyderabad gained several points after registering a convincing victory by 65 runs against KKR.
