Patna Pirates' qualification hopes diminish with defeat over Giants

Patna Pirates continue to languish at the bottom of the points table. They have six points from 13 matches. With this defeat, their hopes of making the top eight were further diminished.

With five games remaining, their chances seem slim unless they manage to win most matches with other results also going in their favor. As the teams above them have more points and games remaining as well, it could be almost impossible for the Pirates to qualify from this stage.

They will face the Bengaluru Bulls in their next fixture on Thursday, October 16. Their other four games are against Bengal Warriorz, Puneri Paltan, Dabang Delhi, and Jaipur Pink Panthers.

The Pirates played the final last season but are on the verge of elimination in the ongoing edition.
