Key Insights – Teams with the Most Successful Playoff Chases

200 runs chased by Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are the highest in an IPL playoff match. KKR pulled off the massive feat in the 2014 final match against Punjab, who set a 200-run target.

As such, this is the only instance of an IPL side hunting down 200 or more runs in a knockout match.

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have gunned down targets above 150 six times, the most by a team in the playoffs. No other team has managed to do it five times, thanks to their frequent appearances in IPL Playoffs.

When it comes to the IPL finals, CSK and KKR share the top spot. Both teams have two chases each of 150 or more runs.
