They reflect on the final group games, which confirmed Delhi Daredevils, Kolkata Knight Riders, Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings as the four teams who will battle it out for overall glory.
Mumbai Indians warmed up for the Indian Premier League 2012 play-offs in style, inflicting a 10-wicket defeat on Rajasthan Royals in the last league match of the season at Jaipur.
Mumbai had already finished third and Rajasthan are now confirmed seventh in the points table.
Royal Challengers Bangalore shot their own chances of making the Indian Premier League 2012 play-offs, going down to Deccan Chargers by nine runs at Hyderabad.
The visitors had needed to win this game to displace Chennai Super Kings from the fourth spot and instead made a dismal exit.
Kolkata Knight Riders confirmed their second spot in the Indian Premier League 2012 table, beating Pune Warriors by 34 runs.
Pune ended a difficult season with a disappointing performance in front of their home crowd, never really getting on terms.
In their last league game of the Indian Premier League 2012, Delhi Daredevils beat Kings XI Punjab by six wickets at Dharmasala.
This result was an important one in determining the line-up for the play-offs. Delhi have topped the table with 22 points, while Mumbai have qualified as the third team. Kings XI have been knocked out of the running as the fourth spot is now dependent on Royal Challengers Bangalore match against Deccan Chargers tomorrow.
Royal Challengers Bangalore acting captain Virat Kohli and Rajasthan Royals batsman Owais Shah have been disciplined for different Indian Premier League 2012 offences.

Deccan Chargers ended Rajasthan Royals' hopes of reaching the Indian Premier League 2012 play-offs with a five-wicket win in Hyderabad.
It was just their second victory in four seasons at their principal home ground and Rajasthan could not have picked a worse time to turn in their worst batting performance of the season.
A Gayle-storm hit Delhi as Royal Challengers Bangalore beat the Delhi Daredevils by 21 runs in game 67 of the Indian Premier League 2012.
Chris Gayle's belligerent hundred paved the way for an important win ahead of the play-offs, especially on a day when Chennai Super Kings lost to Kings XI Punjab in the earlier game.
Adam Gilchrist guided the Kings XI Punjab to a massively important six-wicket win over the Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League 2012 in Dharmasala.
The victory keeps their slim chances of making the play-offs alive while it puts Chennai in a precarious position having completed their group fixtures.
Kolkata Knight Riders qualified for the Indian Premier League 2012 play-offs with an impressive 32-run win over the in-form Mumbai Indians.
They arrested a run of two straight defeats with an outstanding defence of their score of 140 for seven, Sunil Narine taking four wickets as Mumbai were dismissed for 108 in reply.
