The fifth edition of the Lanka Premier League - LPL 2024 is down to the business as one team's journey ends and four teams progress to the playoffs round after the league phase ended on Tuesday (July 16).
The 5-team tournament saw each team face the other in double round-robin format with the top four at the end of the league round earning a spot in the LPL play offs, which will see the top four on the LPL 2024 points table compete in four more matches.

In the LPL playoffs, the top two teams meet in Qualifier 1 with the winner heading directly to the final, while the loser gets another chance to reach the summit clash via the Qualifier 2, where they will face the winner of the Eliminator contested between the 3rd and 4th placed sides.
While that clears the doubts over the format, now let's take a look at the four teams that have booked their spots in the knockout stages and when the LPL 2024 Playoffs will be staged:
Galle Marvels, Jaffna Kings, Colombo Strikers and Kandy Falcons confirmed their spots in the top four. While Marvels, Kings and Strikers booked their spots early, Falcons spot was confirmed after Dambula Sixers failed to pip them in their final league match.
