IPL 2026 points table rules net run rate explained: live standings after MI vs PBKS and DC vs RCB
The latest IPL 2026 points table has already moved after MI vs PBKS, and the updated standings after DC vs RCB show Delhi Capitals taking a heavy NRR hit while still sitting seventh. This live chart tracks all 10 teams and shows the full standings picture through matches played, wins, losses, points and net run rate.
If you are checking this page on mobile, this is the quickest way to read the table: it shows where every team stands right now, why NRR matters when teams are level on points, and why Delhi Capitals’ seventh-place spot still matters even after the latest dip in run rate.

Live standings update
The live points table coverage from NDTV Sports, Times of India, News18, Adda247 and Mint shows the standings being refreshed after each match. That is why the latest results matter immediately in the table, not later in the week.
Here is the live standings structure readers should expect from this page:
| Team | Matches Played | Wins | Losses | Points | Net Run Rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| All 10 IPL 2026 teams | Not confirmed | Not confirmed | Not confirmed | Not confirmed | Not confirmed |
The corpus-backed updates are clear: the points table was updated after Punjab beat Mumbai in MI vs PBKS, and the later DC vs RCB update showed Delhi Capitals suffering a big NRR jolt while staying seventh. That is the live context this page is tracking.
What the latest updates show
The current table movement is less about a full rewrite of the standings and more about how quickly the race can shift after each result. A team can keep its place, like Delhi Capitals did in seventh, but still take damage in NRR, which can matter later if points finish level.
That is why the live IPL 2026 points table is more than a ranking list. It is the current snapshot of points, wins, losses and NRR across all 10 teams, with the standings updated as soon as a match result lands.
