The Sydney Sixers and the Sydney Thunder shared the points after their final match was abandoned due to rain.
The Sixers will finish second, while the Thunder are locked in to finish third.
The Brisbane Heat face the Renegades in their final game and can still make the finals if they win and the Stars lose to the Hurricanes in their final game.
The Perth Scorchers face the Adelaide Strikers with both sides an outside chance of making the finals if both the Stars and Heat lose and they improve their net run rate.
The final game of the regular season sees the Stars host the Hurricanes for a spot in the finals, but if they lose the Hurricanes will be four points clear at the top of the table.
